I've found that a mix of open-registration and invite-only events stimulates different kinds of progress. Fully-engaged practitioners need to spend time with other fully-engaged practitioners. This is true for dentists, poets, and federated social web developers. A personal invitation to a meeting with people whose work you respect brings out the best in people. If everyone in the room is engaged and knowledgeable, the conversation can start at step 25 instead of step 0. I'm enthusiastic about open-registration events. If you're organizing one for the federated social web, please let me know. I'll try to come. -Evan On 12-10-02 02:35 AM, Melvin Carvalho wrote: > > > On 1 October 2012 18:43, Evan Prodromou <evan@controlyourself.ca > <mailto:evan@controlyourself.ca>> wrote: > > The Federated Social Web Summit 2012 will take place on 26 October > 2012 at 180 > Townsend in San Francisco, CA.
