Hi all,

I am glad this thread started.

I'm sending a few emails out today with a link to this thread and a
request that they participate. Hopefully they will join and introduce
themselves.

One idea I have is that we could ask people who are interested in
helping with the proceedings system to have some sprints/project
nights with their local communities to see if they can build up a good
cadence and pool of volunteers at all levels leading up to the
conference as well as participating in a conference sprint with the
goal of standing up a proceedings site?

I know that type of activity is hard to do and sustain, because I've
had partial success maintaining regular project nights at my local
hackerspace and python user groups. However, think project nights that
are more focused than general may have more success.
