X2Go: The Gathering 2021 - Over 9000!

Status: Work in Progess

Date: 2021-12-03 to 2021-12-05

Location: Virtual Event

Why no real-life event: By the time the event takes place, Germany will most likely be in the middle of the 4th Covid-19 wave - that's what the event tagline “Over 9000!” refers to (besides being a meme) - we have more than 9000 people with an active Covid-19 infection in Germany at the moment. (Click here for current stats.)

You can join in any time, even on short notice, no sign-up required (it would still be nice if you'd let us know in advance, so we can make sure we have sufficient server and streaming capacity).

Current plan is to have a fully virtual event, with live streaming and recording (YouTube):

  • Presentations online on Friday evening
  • “Hackathon”-like online meeting on Saturday, continuing into Sunday morning (roughly 4 people)
  • ORCA annual meeting on Sunday afternoon (official invitation to follow)

Sponsoring

Usually, this section would read “As always, we are open to sponsorships”, but Covid-19 changes that as well.

As this year's event is a fully virtual event with no on-site participation, there is no need for event sponsorships.

Event Schedule

ALL TIMES CET

Friday Schedule

We will be using a Jitsi session for the presentations. The session will be live-streamed to YouTube, so please follow the presentation on YouTube to keep the load on our Jitsi server down. Links to both the Jitsi server and the YouTube livestream will be linked above, some time between 17:00h-18:00h on Friday.

For Q&A, we will try to take questions via Jitsi, but also via YouTube chat and possibly IRC - we'll see how that goes. :-)

Friday is a purely virtual event

Live stream / recording will be made available here.

ORCA e.V. annual meeting

  • Date: 2021-12-05
  • Time 11:00 CET
  • Location: Online Link zum virtuellen Konferenzraum wird hier veröffentlicht
  • Komplette Aufzeichnung wird hier veröffentlicht - Sprung zu den einzelnen Abschnitten über die Links unten
  • This is the annual meeting (“Jahreshauptversammlung”) of ORCA e.V.
  • ORCA
    • stands for Open Remote Computing Association
    • has been founded at X2Go: The Gathering 2017
    • includes members of several open remote computing projects, like Arctica and FreeRDP, not only X2Go
  • We are required to have these meetings about once a year.
  • As X2Go: The Gathering is an event where the majority of ORCA members tends to take part in, it makes sense to hold the required annual meeting as part of the X2Go: The Gathering event.
  • The meeting is likely to take place on Sunday. Current orca e.V. members will be invited to this event by individual e-mail.
  • The language of this event item is German.
