Slides for my presentation at JavaOne 2017.
Session description:
Last year this session’s speaker came up with the idea of organizing his own JVM conference. What makes this conference different from (most) other Java/JVM conferences is that the attendees rate the session proposals. While voting, the attendees cannot see who proposed each session, to support equal opportunity. The top-rated sessions are included in the program. After he came up with the idea, the organizer's famous last words were, ”How hard can it be?” The last couple of months, he worked on everything, from the website to speaking with potential partners. If you (plan to) organize a conference, this session will give you some tricks such as organizing games to design a logo and useful applications.
