Joomla!Day Norway - 2. June 2007

[rued]

The Norwegian Joomla! Association is planning to arrange an Norwegian Joomla!Day 2. June 2007.

Our chairman will contact you Alex, regarding this and your or other team members possibility to participate on this event.
But theres nothing stopping you from contacting him (Tor Otto alias aesator) first if you want or need to, but at the moment he left for 14 days holiday and will therefor only be sporadic available.

Website: http://www.joomladay.no/ (also available in English)

More info like specific date, website etc. will come later!

[brian]

Yes about 12 hours. Did alex mail you or Tor the charrter pdf document. He is on his way to the USA right now for the Yahoo OSCMS but I should be able to dig one out if necessary

[rued]

I don't know at the moment if Tor Otto has got a Joomla!Day Charter,
but I just sent an PM to Alex with the boards mail list address.
But i can send a copy to you too if Alex is away for some days.

Thanks Brian.

[brian]

you can.

But I suspect Alex will be checking in soon (I think he is in the air right now) he is very diligent

[akede]

Hi,

I did send the information. If there is anything else we can do please let us know.

Cheers

Alex

[rued]

Thanks Alex,

I have read it and given my opinions and advices to Tor Otto, who will be in charge - and I hope you two already has a dialog.

But I'm going to prepare the Joomla!Day Norway site soon, and I would like to have access to the Joomla!Day logo (template?) etc. - could someone please help me with these things?

Joomladay.org and it's tollbox (mention in the charter) don't seem to be available yet, but maybe Tor Otto has got something without forwarding it? 

[aesator]

Hi,
I got the tollbox items from Alex yesterday, and forwarded to Rune this morning.

[akede]

Hi all,

If you need anything else please get in touch with me. Also if you like to purchase t-shirts for your event on the J!shop let me know in advanced.

We also have a Joomla!Day companion CD with is available through J!Code and some other materials.

Alex

[aesator]

Hi Alex

Did you recieve our formal J!Day application? We also need to know if someone from the core will attend on June 2 ?

[akede]

Hi Tor,

the only mail/application I got was the one from you. Should I have received a second one?

We are currently checking our schedules. There are many events around this date. Some core members are in Berlin due to the LinuxTag others have very little time. But I'm on that.

Alex

[aesator]

Hi Alex

(There is no second, I just wondered about the first one)

We fully understand that your schedules are packed, my concern was about what to tell the norwegians about our J!D.

Best regards

[rued]

The Norwegian J!Day team has the pleasure of official launching the website for Joomla!Day Norway,
the only drawback though is that we still are missing some information like t.ex a program. This because we're still waiting for some feedback from some contributors, but we hope also this will be ready in "good time" before the day.

Feel free to visit us at http://www.joomladay.no/ - it's also available in English for our foreign friends, thanks to Alex excellent J!Fish component. 

[LorenzoG]

I'm thinking to come as well 

Any suggestion for a good hotel? I found First Amassadeur. But it would be funnier to choose the same as you guys.

[RobInk]

The word is out, see http://dev.joomla.org/component/option, ... ,33/p,333/

I'm coming too... would be nice to meet you Lorenzo. And of course anyone else who is coming...

[rued]

Cool 

I think Tor Otto will give us some info about local hotels soon, I know it's on the to do list to sort out this.

@Lorenzo - maybe we should consider a Nordic J!Day sometime in the future, maybe next year - that would be awesome I think. At least it's something to think about for us all. 

[aesator]

Wilco & Robin are both booked in Rica Park Hotel, Drammen, with reference "Foreningen Joomla"
http://www.rica.no/index.cfm?oa=hotel.display&con=700
They still have a few rooms available from Friday to Sunday, and some more for Saturday - Sunday.

[RobInk]

Thanks Tor Otto  Looks good to me, the Hotel...

[LorenzoG]

For me as well 

I have now booked the hotel, the train tickets and the JoomlaDay ticket. FYI, I'lll arrive to the hotel around 7.30pm on Friday.

.. and yes, Joomla! get bigger and bigger for each day. During the nearest time we have to look how we should arrange our days here in Sweden, I think our members wants and expect that something should be arranged and after that , who knows if we couldn't arrange a bigger mutual nordic event and in this way maybe attract more exhibitors, speakers and visitors.

I'm seeing forward to meet all of you! 

[aesator]

Here´s an update of the program in PDF.
Btw: There are seats for more people, and still available rooms at the hotels, so it´s safe to invite more Joomla! friends from Sweden (or anywhere else) to th event. Write me at [email protected] for additional info.

Welcome to Norway!

[LorenzoG]

I'll make a posting in the Swedish forum tomorrow if you guys haven't any mind. 

[rued]

No we don't mind Lorenzo,
actually I think we also should invite our Danish and Finnish friends (and other who likes to travel).

All is welcome to join the event, as long as there's available places - and if needed it's maybe possible to find some extra chairs. 

[LorenzoG]
