ENDED: BigFix User Group Meeting 2015 - Emeryville,CA

  • 1 for live streaming. If that isn’t possible a video capture would be a second choice. It wouldn’t be as interactive but would still be good.

I think just audio capture would be easiest, then maybe audio+video. Streaming is definitely the most difficult.

Please Plan to capture video as well , it will be beneficial for all of the bigfix users

That may be true, but at this current point in time there are not plans to capture anything, but this is something we will discuss.

Personally I would prefer a high quality audio recording over a low quality audio+video recording, particularly if the slides are available to go along with the audio.

I would love for it to be captured somehow and possibly a conference call. I will open my uberconference bridge. max 99 callers( told free or online) for this. It also has the option to record audio.

IMO, capturing the event needs to be a priority. It just doesn’t seem like a reasonable thing to do to amass this much intellectual capital on the product and not capture the information being presented for those unable to attend as well as for future reference.

I agree capturing the event should be a priority. I never meant to suggest it wasn’t, but that doesn’t mean it will be captured.

Is an audio only recording acceptable if Audio+Video can’t be done? I’m much more curious about the opinion there and the degree to which video capture is desired, particularly if the slides+audio are available.

There is also an added complexity to clearing recording will all of the presenters, and then the complexity of turning the recording on and off depending on the presenter.

Also, this is a Community User Group meeting being organized primarily by volunteers, hosted by IBM in this case, but not always.

I think the slide+audio would more than suffice, with the less attractive option of audio only. At least for myself, video isn’t really necessary, more so screen capture of what the presenter is showing (if possible.)

I can certainly understand the complexity of this situation given the volunteer effort being put in, and how some individuals may want their information private and/or not reproduced.

Thanks for sharing this information and looking forward to the content being presented, particularly the IBM Roadmap. Our shop still has a lot of inhibitions with this product and it will be great to understand the expected growth to come.

There are many of us that would be more comfortable if there was no video. Not all of us are natural presenters :slight_smile:

I do think either audio only, or audio+slides makes the most sense and is the easiest to accomplish.

In our internal discussions, we have decided against video.

Reminder, the BigFix User Group Meeting is a week from today. Please RSVP if you are attending.

Hi,
I am an IBMer and I am responsible with Brian Green of the New Dev site (BigFix Developer) project. Being located in Rome it is not that easy for me to participate in person at the user group. I am interested in audio/slide capture of your session and Brian session and of whatever other session where custom content/interfaces/integrations are presented.
Whoever will arrange for doing audio/video streaming or for recording slides/audio from the sessions, please keep me in the loop and let me know where/how I can access them.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Ciao
Gabriella

At this point I am planning on doing audio only recordings, and probably only of the presentations themselves.

We don’t have anything formal planned for recording or posting of the presentations.

Looking forward to the user meetup in Emeryville on Thursday. As of now we have 67 people registered from 21 different companies/higher Eds.

If you haven’t registered yet you should do so! It will be an awesome event with after hours social/dinner.
