Questions to answer first
- What is the topic? (i.e. Coding Night, Cryptoparty, Talk, Workshop, ...)
- What is the target? (i.e. Fixme members, extern people, adults, children, ...)
- What resources are required? (i.e. the hackerspace, electronics tools, electronics parts, ...)
- Who can help me to organise? (i.e. things can be done faster/easier if you not try to do it alone)
Plan the event
- Create a wiki page using the project template.
- Get/Order the resources to be sure to get it on time.
- Check the Fixme Event calendar to find possible dates for the event.
- Open a doodle and spread the word on the mailing list (and IRC, weekmail, twitter, facebook, ...).
- Select the most popular date (yes, it's obvious, I know...)
Communicate about the event
- Think about a poster to promote your event (There is a poster template for Fixme events).
- Once the date is known:
- spread the info on the mailing list,
- update the wiki page with this date,
- update the topic on #Fixme IRC chan,
- create an event on the Fixme Facebook page,
- post the event and date on Twitter,
- prepare a short description for the weekmail.
