💯 Many thanks for this proposal!
Would 29/03 work for you?

Oh that's too early. This is just an idea for the presentation. I need to work on it. Need some time. Also need to check out other proposals to get an idea of how it is usually done.

Sure thing, keep us posted on how things are going. No pressure!

I see that most of the sessions are between 1 and 2 hours. Is this a recommended duration of the presentation? Also many sessions are just live coding with no slides. Is this what I should aim?

You can bring your content as you see fit.
There is no minimum or maximum duration, the longer the stream, the less rewatch value it has but you shouldn't overly worry about that.
You can use slides, no slides, code, no codes, ... however, you see fit!

@object Could you please let us know a possible date(Friday's) that will work for you so we can schedule this interesting session.

Hi Vagif, thanks for the feedback.
No worries, we can schedule it at your convenience.

Hi Florian and Edgar. While I still haven't prepared enough material to run a session on Akka.NET/Akkling/F#, I have another proposition where I can present on a short notice. I recently upgraded our internal Fable Web application to use latest Fable libraries and .NET 8, and I have built a workshop that I ran a few times internally in NRK (our organization). The workshop is called "Real-time event visualization using F# and Fable" and its plan is listed here: https://github.com/object/FableWorkshop.2024/blob/main/FableWorkshop.md

It takes me about 2 hours to build a Fable application from scratch that uses Saturn Web service to simulate real-time event stream. The client-server communication is implemented using Web sockets.

If this sounds interesting I can run a session when it's a proper time for it (shouldn't we wait until people come back from vacations?), and I can come back to Akka topic when I am ready.

What do you think?

Hey Vagif! That sounds very interesting! Without chatting to anyone from AF, I would propose to keep this as a "Welcome back to school" session in September. We can tap into our F# Essentials crowd with such a session.

@edgarfgp let me know what how that sounds!

Indeed looks interesting to follow up the F# Essentials](https://amplifyingfsharp.io/fsharp-essentials/) lessons.

I think we can do this the 2ndof 3th week of September?. Will that work for you @object ?

I am on vacation between 11 and 19 of September, so this is in fact 2-3 week. So we need to find different date.

Hi Vagif, any chance we can set something up for October?

Yes, we should. Any date suggestions?

@object Im organising October's sessions. We could have yours on:

  • Friday 18th. Time slots between 15:00 - 18:00 CEST
  • Friday 25th Time slots between 15:00 - 18:00 CEST

How does this sounds to you ?

October 18 works best for me. But as we discussed earlier, instead of Akkling I will be running a live session about building live dashboards using Fable. I will prepare a description of the session soon.

Thanks. Sounds like a plan. Please let us know the slot time between 15:00 - 18:00 CEST 👍

@object Thanks. I will create a PR for the session page in our website.

Hi again, it's now about 10 days until the session, should it be announced? Also, how should it be run technically? Any tools I should have installed to stream it? Any technical tests we need to perform?

Hi @object.

Thanks for reaching out. Im working on the session page. Regarding tools needed you just need to install zoom and either use a microphone or some decent headphones.

I was planning to reach out on Slack to have a quick call to go over the session structure.

Edit: I will be announcing the session tomorrow.

Great!

One last thing, @edgarfgp. I just changed my employer, I no longer work for Miles. I joined Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation and would very much like to replace "Miles AS" with "NRK" in the announcement. I just updated my profile at GitHub.
Thanks in advance!
