Are you like ONA member Brian Boyer, who is contemplating organizing his own impromptu session on software development at ONA09? If so, here’s a chance for you, too, to hook up with like-minded attendees.<\/p>\n
During the lunch hour on Saturday (Oct. 3), there will be access to as many as four rooms (maybe fewer) for your own presentations and discussions. On Oct. 2, we’ll post a board near the ONA09 registration table where you can either a) post a session you’d like to orchestrate or b) “vote” for a session you’d like to attend. If there are more sessions than space, the sessions with the most votes will get the nod. We’ll notify all attendees as to the session schedule Friday evening via e-mail and on the yet-to-be-developed ONA09 mobile schedule.<\/p>\n
