[OH-Dev] Fwd: [GSoC Mentors] [Announce] Call for Proposals for Doc Sprint Summit v2.0

[Asheesh Laroia]

Look, a camp for writing documentation!

Mike, you had said you were interested maybe in OpenHatch boardies 
meeting up and writing a book.

Karen, you and I might be interested in writing more of "The OpenHatch 
Outreach Cookbook" that we promised in our OSCON talk.

Maybe it'd be fun to put a proposal together for this and see if we 
want to go!

(I figure "Devel" is the most appropriate list for this. If someone has 
another better idea, please reply to me off-list and I can try to move 
discussion there.)

-- Asheesh.

Subject: [GSoC Mentors] [Announce] Call for Proposals for Doc Sprint Summit v2.0

Dear GSoC mentors and org admins,

Google Summer of Code in collaboration with Aspiration and FLOSS Manuals is
hosting a "Doc Sprint Camp" at Google's Mountain View headquarters
(California) Dec 3 - 7, 2012.

The 2012 Doc Camp will feature:

1) An unconference on free software documentation topics - facilitated by
Aspiration

2) 2-5 Book Sprints to produce books on free softwares - facilitated by
FLOSS Manuals

Building on the success of the 2011 GSoC Doc Camp we are proud to bring you
the 2012 GSoC Doc Camp. Like the previous event the 2012 GSoC Doc Camp is a
place for free software communities to meet, create a book for their
project, attract new people to their efforts, and share their documentation
experiences. The camp aims to improve free documentation materials and
skills in free software projects and individuals and help form the identity
of the emergent free documentation sector.

Individuals and projects can apply. Food and accommodation for all
individuals will be provided and travel support (full or partial) can also
be applied for.

Be a part of this exciting event – propose a Book Sprint on your favorite
free software or come and help others write a book on their favorite
project. Guaranteed to be a lot of fun, productive, and a fantastic place
to advance your documentation efforts and experiences.

For more information or to register to take part, please see

Please note proposals are due by October 26, so get yours in ASAP!

Cheers,
Carol Smith, Allen Gunn, Adam Hyde
