Hi Barry,
This sounds like a great addition to the overall event. The rules describe
bar camp as happening on the day of the event, i.e. it sounds like you show
up and then sign up to speak, almost like an open mic. Is that what you are
doing?

Jim,
I hope to see you at Synergy.
One of the things we are doing this year that is different is putting
together an event where any attendee can signup to speak for technical
sessions on the second night. I am putting this part of the show together.
As much as possible I am following the format of a technical barcamp (see
barcamp.org). Starting at 6:30 on the second night (after GeekSpeak Live
ends) the GeekSpeak BarCamp will begin. I will be posting a schedule later
today on the Citrix blog.. I expect to have 20 total speaking blocks
available. You can sign up to speak about any technical topic, just no
marketing, product overviews, or features and benefits. We will have four
sections of the GeekSpeak room in the convention center, and five 30 minute
speaking slots for each. Two of the areas will have big LCD screens, and two
will have just white boards.
Here are two recent blog posts I wrote about this to give you background -

I am hoping you and many other members of this list who are attending will
sign up for to speak at this barcamp. I think this is a great way to provide
a wider variety of technical content for the event and make it much more
valuable for everyone who attends. But the only way it will work is if we
get some really smart and experienced people to sign up to speak.
Thanks,
Barry Flanagan

Just curious who is planning on going to Citrix Synergy. I am hoping to
make it this year and was thinking maybe we could set up a dinner someplace.
I am not familiar with where it is at but figured if I had an idea of a
number of people interested I could reserve someplace.
