Description

Lightning Talks

Many presenters giving very short talks. Maybe 10m talk + 5m Q&A and speaker switching - that would fit 6 talks in 90 minutes. Plenary works well so that everyone connects with some shared topics for discussion, shouldn't be too painful for people uninterested in a particular talk because they are short.

Code Reviews

 

Suggestions from the uPortal Steering Committee

  • What people want out of testing
  • What we want in a user manual
  • Solicit content for our Fall Webinar Series (i.e., portal tours, portlet show-and-tell, etc.)
  • What people want in a possible portlet bundle
  • What would be a good format for a uPortal road map, especially our strategic direction
  • ERP integration, especially Banner portlets and how we should coordinate |

    Collaborative Development

    Programmers get together to implement the need for a particular feature for CAS, a portlet, uPortal, etc.

    Screencast Recording

    Help JA-SIG and uPortal gather better marketing materials! Developers with interesting open source software, compelling usages of the software, head over to a kiosk where someone versed in effective screenshot and screencast capture helps the participant to navigate to their cool software on the web and take some screenshots and screencasts that can then be input to an ever more compelling JA-SIG web presence.
