MiniDebCamp in Thailand

Welcome to wiki page for DebCamp in Thailand.

During visiting Mini DebConf 2009 in Taiwan, a group of Thais (Theppitak, Kitt, Neutron, and Prach) discussed with Andrew Lee about organizing a Debian-related event in Thailand. Andrew suggested to start with organizing a DebCamp. We believe many DDs would love to join the DebCamp in Thailand :)

So, this is a wiki page to gather all information required to organize the event.

Checklist

Local Team

  • Kitt <kitty at kitty.in.th> will gather all the people and organize the team. Debian is community-driven, organizing this event should be like that too! For now, he will be the point of contact.

  • Neutron <neo.neutron at gmail.com> will be local coordinator and local staff.

  • Thep <thep at debian.org>.

  • Prach <prachpub at gmail.com>.

Place

Khon Kaen University (KKU), Khon Kaen

madduck: Khon Kaen was also my second favourite for DebConf Thailand, after Koh Chang. Khon Kaen ist less touristic than Chiang Mai (which would also be good, I think) and has a lot of young people, which is nice.

Thep: After a meeting with local people, we reach an agreement to organize it at Khon Kaen.

Date

13-19 Mar 2010

There are direct flights 3 times daily by Thai Airways International from Suvarnabhumi International Airport (BKK) to Khon Kaen Airport (KKC).

Conference Facilities

  • Network: KKU is one of the GigaPOPs of UniNet - Thailand's hi-speed inter-university backbone. KKU directly connects to the GigaPOP switch at 1 Gbps (+ 200 Mbps backup link), and provides 1-Gbps fiber downstream to all buildings in the university. Also, KKU has the campus-wide 802.11b/g wireless network to access the Internet. Kitt could contact KKU's Computer Center to provide additional network facility for the event if required.

  • Rooms: probably at Kwan Mor Accommodation.

  • Cost: ??

  • Capacity: how many people fit in ?

madduck: back then, I knew some influential people at the TTA and the telecom, but they no longer work there, and after the uprests of last year, and after Singapore bought thai telecom, I don't have contacts anymore. :( But I will support any Debian activity in Thailand as best as I can.
