AN INVITATION TO BECOME ENGAGED
 
Please join us May 11-13 at the Clarion Hotel in Northampton, MA for a
weekend FileMaker in Education "Un-conference" - an open-format discussion
and idea-sharing event for developers, evangelists and users, focused on
solutions and challenges for the education and non-profit market.
 
This is an open event to all that have interest in this topic. Please feel
free to share this invitation with colleagues, friends and other FMP users
and developers.  You can go to our website
http://www.inresonance.com/unconference for a link to the event Wiki that
also outlines travel information and suggested hotels in the area. The
meeting will run from 6:00 PM on Friday, May 11 and end at noon on Sunday.
The cost for this event is only $75, to defray costs for meals and
refreshments.
 
This low-cost Meeting of the Minds is being hosted by inRESONANCE in order
to provide a space to network, and to share experiences, ideas, energy and
even frustrations with other users, developers and visionaries. Help someone
with their FileMaker challenges, and get help on yours, while meeting and
expanding your network of contacts and pros.
 
The Un-conference format means that there are no set presentations or
pre-determined sessions. You contribute to the agenda by submitting topics
online via the Wiki starting on April 24.
 
The Un-conference format has been successfully used by the open-source
community to drive real conversations and get real results and feedback for
the actual work developers are doing. Take a look at the following link to
Un-conference:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconference and it's original
non-tech kin - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Space_Technology]
 
Potential topics may include:
- FileMaker in education:  examples, successes, challenges
- FileMaker integration with other non-profit and education-focused
solutions (financial apps, websites, etc)
- Exploiting features of FMP 8.5: web viewer, tool tips, calendars, tab
controls, php  API, etc
- Where is the work?  Business opportunities for independent and in-house
developers
- FMP and web integration using PHP and other technologies
 
You may add your ideas to the wiki once it becomes available.

We are very excited to be hosting this "un-event" and welcome this
opportunity to engage your insights!

Best
Kevin
