This will be our 2nd in-person event in 2020, trying to take first baby steps back out of the virtual into the real. Under the rule of the pandemic, rules apply and - because this will be an open-air event - we depend on the weather. We provide an open mike to hear form you how you have been and how remote work works for you. You bring your own food and drink. Let's have a chat (and a Tombola)!
14 RSVPs
We have been thinking about putting together an in-person event for the first time in a long while. (s. https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Atlassian-User-Groups-articles/RFC-Opening-up-To-meet-how-to-meet-or-not-to-meet-that-is-the/ba-p/1408934#M47 ) after the Senate published their revised COVID-19 rules on June 23rd. (https://www.berlin.de/rbmskzl/aktuelles/pressemitteilungen/2020/pressemitteilung.949728.php )
We think that staying at home was the right answer for the short-term, but it is not a long-term solution for a long term problem like COVID-19 and there is a high probability that this pandemic will remain a risk until 2021 and - worst case - beyond that. Anything else would be a positive surprise.
Be that is at it may, there is certainly no essential need to meet again, but we have heard some voices in our community who would like to and as we are doing this for you, if there really is demand, we decided to make an offer.
Make no mistake: This is not risk free - and this is your personal risk - but in our fair city the risk looks manageable enough - sticking to few ground rules - to try, because - again - staying at home and avoiding all human contact is not a long-term solution.
And we honestly would like to see you again in real 3D.
August, 13th - 18:00 – Airport Tempelhof (Tempelhofer Feld) - Park closes 21:30 in August. As this is a very big and busy place, We will share an exact location about an hour before the event.
Overview of the park and entrances: https://gruen-berlin.de/tempelhofer-feld
Entry to the park is free.
We will send out GPS coordinates when we are on location. (The field is - very - big)
This is a first. We want to sit and chat with you about your experiences during lockdown, how did remote work work for you? With or without Atlassian. Did a Trello/Jira board save your sanity? Did you keep a Confluence diary?
Open mike. We want to record and publish it, thinking about a Zoom meeting as an extension to give more people a chance to join/communicate with us. We will bring camera, PA and mike.
So we have five prizes, winners can choose which prize they would like to have from the remaining options.
It is not risk free, and the Senate of Berlin asks us to have a concept, so here it is.
Please help us to make this happen and keep everybody safe as possible, while we conquer the great outdoors again.
Two caveats:
We are looking forward to seeing you again.
