History: TikiFestVirtual2020
Preview of version: 121
A global TikiFest during the pandemic travel restrictions
During our May 2020 Tiki Roundtable Meeting we decided to have a virtual TikiFest to discuss and improve profiles and may be other things (TBD).
To coordinate with users that have different timezone, I organise a first planning session (Sunday 15h00 UTC seems the best for all - last votes for TRM). During this meeting a roadmap based on What should help to coordinate and to be effective. We'll set teams of users interested to solve or improve an area and that are able to work together (timezone) and progress in parallel.
The last meeting should be a kind of conclusion (completing committing, documentation, and eventually planning other steps).
We made pages for each topic with convene plugins for people to vote for times for each session. There may be more than one session per page.

Unfortunately, we depend here on hub.togetherjs.com as the standard togetherjs package is using mozilla-hosted hub server. This server seems to be down now (not sure how long but it seems at least a couple of weeks). See here https://togetherjs.com/docs/#hosting-the-hub-server for more info on how to host the hub server yourself. I see 3 possible ways to go ordered by easiest to hardest to implement.
1. Contact togetherjs team via irc or email and see what are their plans on supporting hub.togetherjs.com.
2. Host the server yourself somewhere where you host Tiki. It is a quite simple nodejs app that needs to be run and proxy'ed by an http server. If you choose this option, I can add a togetherjs option to provide the URL to the hosted hub server inside the wiki plugin.
3. Host the hub inside Tiki. Since we can't rely on a nodejs app in Tiki due to complex deployment issues we will hit, there is an option to rewrite the hub server in PHP and provide it as part of Tiki codebase. This will require some moderate programming effort to rewrite the nodejs app with proper PHP libs in plain PHP. This will be the cleanest solution for the long-term but require most effort now.

Party
Because this Tiki Fest is not a physical event and the Corona Pandemic makes it impossible for Tiki Users to meet, how about a Demo Day where Tiki'ers can show what they've done and do with Tiki?
Demo Day
- Show what you do factually with your org. Which problem your solving
- Perhaps you've upgraded to the latest version of Tiki or you wish to demonstrate what your doing with your Tiki version... even if it is not up to date.
- Or, simply, your new to Tiki and you trying Tiki for the first time
Example
Let's say your using a not so recent version of Tiki or that it has long time come to the end of it's service life, the demo day can also allow users to present their Use Cases
- Any ideas?
