XpDay2Organizers

Please add you name to this page by 3rd July 2002, if you want to be one of the organizers for XpDay2. Signing up here means you agree to do real work (see below)to help make the event happen.

I suggest that it'll be easier/more likely that things will get done if there is a Chair. As Rachel did lots last year and has already done quite a bit this year, and seems willing to do the job, I nominate RachelDavies as Chair. If anyone disagrees, please speak up before the end of July, otherwise take it that Rachel has been "elected" as Chair. IvanM

See XpDay2Speakers if you want to be a speaker at XpDay2.

We have a list of organizers now, but if you would like to help in some way but can't commit a lot of time please add you're name to XpDay2Helpers

As an informal community group we have no admin staff to delegate the work to. I've listed some of the things the organizers did did last year to give you a flavour of what needs to be done. --RachelD
