Flock summary article for the Magazine

[Natalie Ardasevova]

Hi guys,

I promised you I would write a Flock summary article about Flock for the Magazine. I
should do it soon, and wanted to ask if you have any points which you'd like to see
there? The suggestions you gave me for the pre-event article helped me a lot. It would
help now as well so I know what to focus on. Should I highlight the keynotes? Conference
life? It is not as much a personal view like a blog post, but a more general
information... so I need your help :) I assume it would also include links to the videos
and transcriptions?

Thank you,

Hey Natalie, I just forwarded this email over to the flock-planning 
mailing list to see if some of the people heavily involved with 
organizing and managing Flock have some thoughts they'd like to share 
with you about this. Hopefully some more of the Flock team will be able 
to offer some key points they'd like to see a summary / report article 
focus on.

Thanks for leading on this. :)

I suggest that you link to the talks wiki page that is now being worked
on: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Flock_2016_Talks

As for content, I suggest that you concentrate on how the conference
moved the project forward.  What ideas and working groups were held. 
This way people understand the "do" aspects of Flock, not just the
"listen" aspects.

regards,

Makes sense, just it needs to be pretty much accessible to non-technical readers, since
Fedora Magazine is for a wider audience.

It would be helpful to get some numbers. Do you guys know:

- the number of attendees and speakers for this year and last year?
- is there an article about it from last year that I could compare to show growth?
- where will the videos be? Can I already see some?

Thank you,
