|

.. Admonition:: What is BoostCon?
|
||||
|
||||
This inaugural Boost conference promises to be the main
|
||||
face-to-face venue for all things Boost, from using libraries to
|
||||
writing them, from evangelizing Boost to deployment within your
|
||||
organization, from infrastructure and process to vision and
|
||||
mission, and from TR1 to TR2. Given the range and interests of the
|
||||
participants, the event is going to be intense and in-depth.

Tracks
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Recognizing the breadth of the community, we are offering two
|
||||
primary tracks: the first three days will be focused mostly on the
|
||||
practical interests of Boost and TR1 end-users, and the last three
|
||||
will be directed more towards hard-core Boost developers, with one
|
||||
overlap day at midweek. Thus, the conference fosters interaction
|
||||
both within *and* across these tracks, with an emphasis on service
|
||||
to our user base.
|
||||
|
||||
In the spirit of Boost, many sessions will be participatory and/or
|
||||
collaborative in nature. Sessions will run in the morning and
|
||||
evening, leaving a midday break of several hours so that attendees
|
||||
can get out and enjoy the town and its surroundings, or just to
|
||||
have time to work together in small, informal groups.
|
||||
|
||||
Propose a Session
|
||||
=================
|
||||
|
||||
See the BoostCon `Call for Sessions`_ for details about how to submit a sesion proposal.

Venue
|
||||
=====
|
||||
|
||||
The main venue for this conference will be the `Aspen Center for
|
||||
Physics`__ in Aspen, Colorado. The town of Aspen is known for its
|
||||
world-class cuisine and its envigorating, natural setting. As
|
||||
generations of scientists can attest, the Center's beautiful
|
||||
location and its low-key atmosphere create a unique and lively
|
||||
environment for thought, education, and collaboration.

||||

|
||||
|
||||
Hotel
|
||||
=====
|
||||
|
||||
The main conference hotel will be the `Aspen Meadows Resort`__.
|
||||
Located within walking distance of the Physics Center, the Meadows
|
||||
provides 90 rooms, a restaurant, and overflow conference facilities
|
||||
should the event expand.

|
||||
Conference Size
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
Much more than having a great number of attendees, it's important
|
||||
that this first BoostCon be a success, so we're starting small.
|
||||
Registration will initially be limited to just 100 places, except
|
||||
that we'll accomodate 200 participants on Wednesday, when the two
|
||||
main tracks overlap. Contingency plans are in place that *may* allow
|
||||
us to expand registration should demand prove overwhelming, but
|
||||
when registration opens we recommend securing your place early, in
|
||||
case that isn't possible.
|
||||
|
||||
Registration
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
Official Registration is not yet open, but an `informal attendee
|
||||
list`__ for those likely to attend has been set up on the Boost
|
||||
Wiki. The conference organizers would very much appreciate it if
|
||||
you could add an entry to this list if you think you'll be there,
|
||||
to help us with planning.
