drupal recording initiative

Hey friends! I have a BoF Tuesday June 6 at 9:30am, Room 328, Table 1 to discuss decentralizing, expansion, and the future of the Drupal Recording Initiative for local events. If you'll be at Drupalcon, I hope to see you there!

Topics for discussion: 

• regional equipment hubs (individual/camp/user group/etc.)
• regional leads
• regional volunteer pool 
• improved documentation
• leveraging Open Collective for additional people
• establishing volunteer compensation structure 

March was a crazy month and I neglected my regular updates. Between touristing my first time in London, recording #DrupalCampLDN in person, flying back home just hours before the UK travel ban kicked in, adjusting to life in quarantine, working with my team to convert #MidCamp to an all-virtual conference, coordinating with #NERDSummit to also go virtual the same weekend as MidCamp, and then recovering from what was very likely Covid-19 myself (all the symptoms, but not bad enough to get tested), I had my hands full.

I post updates on LinkedIn and to backers of the Drupal Recording Initiative, but I suppose blasting these via Planet Drupal is also a good idea. Well, at least until Drupal.tv adds that functionality (you can track that issue here).

Enjoy!

As I prepare to begin the year of recording ahead of me, I realize I haven't published an official 2019 year-end report, so here are last year's highlights:

It has been nearly a year since I’ve updated the status of my camp recording kits. Since DCSTL15, two other camps took me up on my proposal to sponsor my travel and hotel in exchange for me recording and posting their sessions: TCDrupal and BADCamp. And, of course, as a MidCamp organizer, that counts too. And with each of those camps, I’ve iterated and learned from invaluable successes and failures.

First off, here is a link to the current kit.
