I agree that hoping for 30 minutes may be a bit much, but I signed up for the 90ish minute slots as well. I can promise to check the board and take pictures each time I pass it though. Looking at the pictures included - my main concern is that a full or filling board will be illegible with the small and thin script. I can bring sharpies if that would help? Also I am wondering about what the image size/compression will be like with the board images and whether people can zoom in on the image.

Hi Trey,

Thanks for putting together the doc! Looks great!

I think taking a pic every 30 minutes might be a bit much and I don?t think it would be manageable. Every 1-2 hours should be fine. We could add a sentence to the website setting clear expectations of how often we will update the picture.

My availability will be limited as I will be staffing the Elastic booth, organizing the mental health Open Space, and participating in other events.

Thank you! Anna

Alright I've started a document that I'd like you all to review and discuss

On picture quality

Picture quality seems like it might be shaky (see the many examples of

pictures folks have taken in the past, which are often hard to read because the text is so small/fuzzy in photos).

...

We could try to compensate for this by encouraging large dark letters

and reminding people to write legibly so that people can read what they've written from afar.

...

On scheduling pictures

I'd love to have a picture taken every 30 minutes if possible. Thoughts

on how reasonable/necessary that seems?

...

What is your availability like during PyCon? Will you be able to take

pictures of the board on-site and, if so, how often? I figure I should be able to take a picture every 120 minutes approximately, since I don't plan to be in talks and open spaces for more than about 2 blocks of time in a row.

...

Taking a picture every 2 hours is a bit of a scheduling issue

potentially. If we got 1-3 more trusted volunteers for this task, would could instead shoot for each person taking a picture every 3 hours. I suppose technically we could even recruit random people as volunteers, if they wanted to email one of us a picture if they see an upload of one is needed.

Hi Anna,

I'll put together a game plan and run it by you all via email tomorrow. It'll be in the form of a Google Doc.

Thanks for the nudge!

PyCon is fast approaching so I thought it would be good to come up with a general game plan for everyone. Would you be able to send some instructions to the team with regards to monitoring the Open Spaces board and uploading the images to the website? How often should we take a
