Yes, we talked about it with Ryan a week ago and I'm definitely up for it.
I was wondering whether Max has any news about Weimar?
M
yeah,
i've mentioned it to marco and some other people too about doing it in london. i've also been speaking with a couple of people who may be able to help with the funding side of it. so, london? ryan.
Hi,
why Weimar in particular? If in germany, why not Berlin for example? Or
even both?

Wherever the funding works ; and wherever the interested organisers are.

because max is at weimar, and sees (or: has seen) possibilities to get funding to weimar.
i don't really understand the question. PdCon is organized by volunteers at a certain place; nobody choses to make it somewhere but the people who actually do make it. it was not like miller or hans or you stood up and said "hey let's make the pdcon in sao paolo"; it was sao paolo that volunteered to do it (and likewise for graz and montreal).
so if you want to do it in berlin, just volunteer to do it and then do it. (obviously you should sync yourself with other candidates, in order to avoid duplicate effort)

Also, Weimar is not so far from Berlin, and it sounds like we have a good venue there, so all you Berliners might be able to help out with the effort there. :-)

Yes, it's not only organised by volunteers, it's also initiated by those very volunteers. « At a certain place » is relative though : in the 2nd convention there was one organiser who lived 200km (two hundred) away and went back and forth weekly, and another one who had a job 5000km (five thousand) away and went back and forth a little less often, but still, basically everybody had a foot in Montréal. In the 3rd convention, if I understood it properly, it was more scattered, more «multi-city». I say that because I want to say that a «multi-city» collaboration is a possibility.
(obviously you should sync yourself with other candidates, in order to avoid duplicate effort)
« sync yourself » means more like « make the competition irrelevant ».
But then, « make the competition irrelevant » can be several things : be much better than your opponent, or... make it a cooperation instead.

I think you understood the question, you just answered it. so it seems
simple.
I don't have the contacts in Berlin to put up something like this. But
since am not far from Weimar, wouldn't mind trying to help with something
- in case the practical side of it makes it possible.

Hi João, list.
We should meet in Berlin with others interested in that matter and discuss how we can join efforts. I am frequently there and would welcome to join a Berlin Pd meeting for instance.

that would be the best way, I guess. at least I was never in Weimar and
don't know when I'll be there.
I'll be in Berlin the 25th and 26th. Then I'll be away from the 27th to
the 10th. There might be a Pd-meeting in the first week of September, but
being one of the two persons organising it (the other is Servando), I
would like to be there if any Pd-Con subject gets discussed.
Fluency to the Pd meetings has been variable, from 1 to 15 persons. I
usually can't predict how many persons will be available in the next
meeting.
João
haha everybody vote for London. An idea of bringing it to Australia? :D

Hi Joao
I am wondering if you or anyone else could let me know how advanced the plans for a PDCon11 in Germany are? Because I sat down this morning to start organising the PDCon11 in London and then read your email.
I'm pretty sure we've got institutional support (a university) and possibly some funding if we can pull it off - although the climate for funding in this country has just got really bad (the new government are swine).
I don't want to duplicate...

Hi Ed,
good to hear your voice on this. I am responsible for placing Weimar in the game. Whoever can secure funding for such an event goes forward. I am working on it (all-though atm. a bit distracted because of the ISEA presentation next week), but please don't feel discouraged to do so as well.
