Secured Town Hall keynote speaker

Magma @OSSEU Planner Sept 18th 1/2 day - Cancelled

  • Action items:

    1. (Som) write up the townhall planner in the proposed format
      -- Outreach group proposes to TSC that the August townhall be postponed to September 
      -- This will allow more participation
      -- We plan to talk about the Magma Starter kit and at least one user story from Wavelabs


    2. (Som) Create a one-pager for items that will be a 'Magma Community Edition' starter kit
      -- MagmaCommunityEdition - Starter Kit Overview - Google Docs
      -- TSC, should we consider renaming v 1.9 to MCE 1.0? (Magma Community Edition v 1.0)
      -- Pano - marketing support for previous releases? There were blog posts for 1.8, 1.7., 2.0 would deserve a press release and blog post. Som - starter kit would deserve a webinar, Pano - better to coincide with major version release. 1.9 blog update, 2.0 larger release (blog, pr, technical brief, webinar). Som 2.0 1-1.5 years away
      -- Som - starter kit is an important piece that will help community adoption.
      -- Aim to acheive consensus next week.
