I'm going to start this off with a huge apology - there's a very real
chance I've asked someone to do a presentation and it's not on this
list. If so, you need to email me to remind me. If you were
definitely planning on presenting something because I emailed you, let
me know - there's lots of space available. I know this only affects 2
or 3 people, but I tossed around a few ideas and didn't want to leave
any loose ends. (Any of those items would make nice topics.)
This is the initial agenda for WineConf. I hope to add a few more
items, but Jeremy suggested I pull the trigger and announce it. I
agree - there's enough here to fill two days and leave a lot of time
for people to get together in small groups. Only the first two items
are in any formal order:
Alexandre - Keynote (He said he's reusing last year's slides.)
Dimi - to do list / status update
Steven Edwards and the ReactOS crew
Charles W Stevenson - Winelib / Winelib porting / and a commercial perspective
Andrew Barlett / Samba team? - Samba 4, authentication, lots of
intelligent ideas
Juan Lang - Wine's RPC + Samba or something like that :)
Jeremy White - CXTest
Jason Edmeades - DirectX 9 / wined3d / eye candy
I think a full agenda would be about 11 items. If you would like to
present something let me know - there's definitely space available.
If you've been wondering, "There's a neat project I'd like to do if I
could only get a few more people interested", well, this is the
perfect time to bring it up. If there's something strategic to Wine
development, this is a great time to discuss it. For example, we've
had mixed feelings regarding revision control and its been suggested
to bring it up as a topic. Would anyone find it useful to discuss
subversion vs. arch vs. cvs? We could probably get Mike Hearn to show
off how he manages patches with SVK and then let him arm wrestle
Alexandre about whether arch is better.
Friday night we will have an informal dinner after meeting up at the
hotel. The conference will kick off Saturday morning on campus around
8am. Lunch will be provided on Saturday and Sunday as well as dinner
on Saturday. There will definitely be a lot of time for informal
discussion.
For the Samba guys - I think there's a great opportunity to share some
knowledge to prevent anyone from reinventing the wheel. If there's
any topic you'd find interesting, let me know. If you'd just like to
hear a specific topic from the Wine folks, we can arrange that.
For travel arrangements, please join wineconf(a)winehq.org (
http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wineconf ) For instance, I'm
actually flying into Frankfurt on April 23rd and it'd be cool to hang
out with anyone arriving early. If you haven't made reservations at a
hotel, don't worry too much. There's still rooms available as Mr.
Schmid described here:
http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-devel/2005/03/1119.html
If you haven't signed up on the RSVP list, please do so. It can be
found on the WineConf page:
http://www.winehq.com/site/wineconf
Lastly, if you have any questions / comments / criticisms let me know.

PS. Dimi owes me a beer from last year, so we're all obligated to go
out Friday night. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone in
Stuttgart!

I will add a not about the header situation. It has bothered me for a while.
The DDK headers come from Mingw and are public domain and we have kept this
license in our tree so Wine could import them from ReactOS svn at any time.
Thanks

Hi,
I have put together our presentation for Wineconf and as most everyone knows what ReactOS is I
have made our presentation more a list of ideas on how we can work together better along with
short Q/A times for each. I expect we will need about 45 minuets given the number of pages in my
PPT and the time for Q&A on each section. Please let me know if I need to trim to save some time.
Thanks
Steven

I'm just sending this out as a reminder for everyone to book your
hotel room for WineConf. For more information, check out:
1. http://www.winehq.com/site/wineconf
2. http://www.winehq.com/site/wineconf/travel
The last day to reserve a room is tomorrow - March 17th. There's no
guarantee rooms will be available after that, and I don't have any
indication the hotel will allow reservations after that. If you
haven't looked at the details, it's a great deal - 81EUR for Friday
and Saturday night and it includes breakfast in the morning.
If you're thinking to yourself, "I'd like to go to Wineconf, but I
don't think I'm cool enough." Well, you should try to attend. You'll
probably really enjoy it.
PS - still looking for ideas for the agenda, if you have any, let me
know. Also let me know if you'd like to present something.
-Brian
Hi,
I´ve asked the hotel. There are enough rooms left!
It´s important, that the partcipants tell the
keyord "WineCon" when they try to reserve the room.
Please reserve at least four weeks before
the beginning of the conference (March 17)
See you in Stuttgart

Hey guys,
Ira Krakow just emailed me to say the hotel is out of rooms. Can anyone
confirm that? If so, it seems like we have more people at the hotel
than on the RSVP list, or the hotel doesn't have as many rooms. Can
someone call them?
