/*

this presentation:# will be available at osscamp.in and my blog# contains subjective opinions# is not technology-oriented

the law of two feet applies to this presentation

*/

law of two feet:

if at any time you find yourself in any situation where you are neither learning nor contributing, use your two feet and move to some place more to your liking1

The sum of the expertise of the people in the audience is greater than the sum of expertise of the people on stage

- Fundamental Law of Conventional Conferences2

conference- barriers to entry- barriers to contribute+ law of two feet+ focus on people

audience >> participantshelp yourself...organizing a discussion that involves the minds and expertise of all the people in the room...2

unconferences

1. whoever comes is the right people2. whatever happens is the only thing that could have3. whenever it starts is the right time4. when its over its over
