- 2014: regional Hydra event in UK/Ireland (same time as LDCX?)

- Pattern for other Partner meetings
- There has been an email discussion on the list.
- Chris and Richard: we had an awareness-rising event in London last November, not a developer get together. Having frequent meetings is a good idea, but be clear about the focus and what you want to achieve, in order to get people to come!
- September at Penn State. Two parallel tracks:
- Training
- Plans are under way for camp beginning of August at University of Virginia, a couple of seats are still available! Focus will be on Sufia, there will be pre-work on that. Breaking up in teams with hands on Sufia, Matt will be leading, Carolyn Cole will be co-teaching, this is a good way to expand the ability for training in the community.
- A formal announcement is about to be sent out for a camp Oct. 1-4 at Case Western Reserve University. Adam will co-teach this.
- Lightning talk about training on OR2013, we get good feedback on online tutorials, still backlog, but we are making progress towards meeting the training goals.
- OR13 Review
- Mark Bussey thanks everyone who helped out, particularly Monday where Tom missed out because of the SF plane crash. Thanks Mike and Adam for helping out on the panel discussion from remote! There was a lot of energy around Hydra and Fedora Futures. Avalon and HydraDAM got featured in two panels. 40 folks in Intro to Hydra workshop, 15-18 developers in developer session. Morning Hydra workshop was the single largest workshop on the conference. We printed and handed out bookmark, the t-shirts were fantastic! For upcoming events, we can think strategic of getting more penetration into the presentations and more stuff to share.
