Announcing the 5th Wocoa Pow Wow
Many suns have risen in the east and set in the west since the first
gathering of the Wocoa people.
Most brothers and sisters enjoyed our last Pow Wow in Berlin and wanted
to continue sharing their rhythms and tales about WebObjects and Cocoa
development in the future. So the Wocoa drummers decided that they will
beat the drums this summer too, so that our people can share their
dreams.
We are glad to see that Apple decided to make our next Pow Wow even
easier to remember, by releasing its wild cat, Mac OS X Jaguar, on the
same day.
As usual this event will be as unorganized as ever. Please do not expect
a regular and boring trade show or conference, but bring your DVDs,
guitars and PowerBooks instead.
+++ Location
This time we are gathering in the settlement called "Amsterdam" in the
Lower countries (Netherlands), where canoes are the main means of
transportation, people smoke strange plants. Our host this time will be
the tribe of the Tuparevs.
It will all happen on the last weekend in the month of the thunder
Sat, August 24, 2002
Full details about the location will be mailed to all those who
registered.
+++ Registration
Since Amsterdam is a very popular place to hang around, canoes and
wigwams are difficult to find on short notice. So if you intend to join
us, please send a message with your name and preferred email-address to
email@hidden
as soon as you can. Both are necessary for your name badge.
If you want the name of your tribe or company to appear on your name
badge, please tell us what it should be.
If you still have your name badge from a previous Wocoa event, please
tell us and reuse it.
If you have a cool application that you would like to demo to other
people, or have an interesting topic that you would like to share with
other dancers - just let us know. We will publish these topics on our
webpages and the peoples mailinglist, so that others will know who to
talk to.
After registration you will receive a confirmation mail and a second
mail with the exact location details, shortly prior to the event. You
will also be added to the email@hidden mailing list unless you
explicitly state that you do not wish to be part of it.
We do not charge any fee for attending this Pow Wow but you will have to
cover your own expenses.
You must register because we need to know how many Wocoa dancers will
stomp our tipi. Otherwise we can not pick the right place and we cannot
guarantee to find a big enough place if you register after
August 5th.
You might miss a great canoe trip through our settlement's channels if
you register after August 10th.
+++ The Big Plan
The plan is fairly simple and looks like this:
Fri, Aug. 23. "Early bird evening boat ride"-special in Amsterdam
(registration required prior to Aug. 10th
... we find the canoe ... you have to pay your share)
Sat, Aug. 24. A long day of OS X, Cocoa and WebObjects geek
talks and demos
(registration prior to Aug. 5th recommended; it would
make our life easier
... we find the place ... and you are welcome free of charge)
Sun, Aug. 25. Hangout in lovely Amsterdam
( ... its all up to you)
Like during previous events we are again looking forward to welcome 50 -
100 highly motivated and creative Wocoa dancers.
+++ Further Information
The general information on our tribe is on Wocoa's website. And here you
will soon find more information about cheap wigwams (hotels), or even
free wigwams shared with local tribesmen (sleeping bag places),
information about local eatable plants and animals, and directions on
how to find our camp. Schedule and other useful information will be also
listed here. So check out the two sites:

+++ Sponsors
This event will be organized and sponsored as a joined effort by Tuparev
Technologies, the Codeon GmbH, ilink GmbH, Mulle kybernetiK, the
Objectweaver GbR and the ObjectFarm people.
If you want to contribute to the event or have any questions ... feel

+++ Beat the drums
We hope that you send the necessary smoke signals to your friends and
that you tell them about the Wocoa Pow Wow. The more "Indians" come ...
the better and louder our Pow Wow will be.
Share and Enjoy.
The Wocoa-Drummers
