tantek hey where are we with November IndieWebCamps besides Berlin?
#
EmreSokullu I'm planning one for istanbul, but not sure if I should do it as a BarCamp with a broader set of topics. I'm still new to the IndieWeb concept, so I'm afraid it may be premature otherwise.

EmreSokullu this is from the one ten years ago btw https://www.flickr.com/photos/15743654@N07/1695991021/
#
tantek awesome!
#
tantek EmreSokullu: do you have a co-organizer?
#
EmreSokullu in the previous one, I had some college students who helped me.
#
EmreSokullu For this one, I have a couple of people (ex-colleagues) who promised with web development/graphics "sponsorship" -- but we may call them co-organizer I guess. Also Bahcesehir Univ told they can host us again.
#
tantek that's wonderful!
#
tantek either way I think would be great - whatever you think would be best for the local crowd
#
EmreSokullu Thanks. It may be a barcamp with predominantly indieweb theme. I guess I should check youtube to see more examples and decide accordingly. I'll let you know.
#
tantek awesome

tantek we should start looking at the remaining possibilities for 2017 https://indieweb.org/Planning#2017 and evaluating if there's any reasonable chance or not for 2017, and if not, start moving them to https://indieweb.org/Planning#2018

schmarty tantek: as lead organizer for IWCNYC - is it cool if i sponsor on behalf of TWITIW?
#
schmarty i'd be happy to cover coffee or lunches.
#
tantek yes totally!
#
tantek covering one of the lunches would be awesome
#
schmarty in planning terms, can i just put TWITIW down as covering one of the lunches and pay for it on the day?
#
schmarty the /how-to-sponsor page suggests mailing a check and emailing aaronpk, which sounds like overkill :}
#
tantek schmarty - huh good point, we should better document in-kind sponsorships which I think are preferred
#
tantek i.e. the sponsor just pays for and arranges the item(s) to be delivered directly

aaronpk and the opencollective page is a better secondary option as well
