Hi everyone,

I'm excited to help out with the Open Spaces planning this time around!

I wasn't very involved in the planning process last year so I'm not exactly sure what went as planned and what did not. However, I will say that from an outsiders perspective the Open Spaces sign up board and process for scheduling things looked fairly organized. It was also nice to see people using the bot :)

I'm totally in favor of using a Trello board to organize our planning/thoughts.

I've started to think about a few changes that would be nice to make to the bot. Things like, making it a little smarter, possibly adding a few more features, and changing the way the system is deployed so it can be used more easily by others. Hobs added a few issue the totalgood/openchat repo last time around that I'm planning as using as a starting point for adding things (link to issues).

Really looking forward to helping out in any way that I can!

Hi all,

I hope you’re all well!

I thought it would be a good idea to officially kick off the planning of the PyCon US 2018 Open Spaces before the holidays hit everyone. May may still seem a long time away but it’s never too early to start planning :)

In the past I have used a Trello board (please let me know if you don’t have access) to keep track of ideas and tasks but I am open to using something different. I do think that using some sort of project management tool, whether that’s something like Trello or GitHub, makes sense and makes things a little easier.

Maybe we can start by discussing what went well last year, what didn’t go as planned, and any ideas we would like to implement for 2018.

Looking forward to working with all of you again!
Anna
