Gathered together from the cosmic reaches of the universe...

CodeStock 2012 will be held June 15-16th, 2012 at the University of Tennessee Conference Center.  Registration will open up in late February.

The CodeStock 2012 Call for Speakers is officially underway.  Visit http://codestock.org/Call-For-Speakers.aspx to submit your session abstracts.

This year we are reaching out to welcome new and upcoming speakers to present side-by-side with long term veterans.  If you’ve ever thought about speaking at a community conference, take a moment to read over the link above. 

And finally, information on CodeStock Sponsorships and Advertising is available at http://codestock.org/Sponsorship.aspx – if you are interesting in sponsoring this year’s event please contact us at sponsorship@codestock.org

It's time to start the planning process for CodeStock 2012!

This year my goal is to build a true CodeStock Team so that the event is truly led by the community.  I also want to make sure that if I for some reason cannot lead CodeStock planning one year the event will still go on.

To kick off planning we'll hold a planning meeting at the Technology Cooperative Sunday, Nov 13, 2011 from 3:30 - 5:30 PM.  This will be an overview of past events and the planning process, then move into what the goals should be for 2012.

If you are interested in being involved in CodeStock 2012 planning, then please right now sign up for the mailing list at https://groups.google.com/group/codestock-planning.  Even if you cannot make the first planning meeting sign up on the list to participate.

Whether you can commit time to planning or not, I hope to see you at CodeStock 2012!
