I was reminded today that I put together some notes last year with people’s feedback about what worked well at the last GUADEC. The idea was that this could be built on, and eventually become another part of the GNOME handbook, so that we have a good checklist to organise events from each year.

I’m not organising GUADEC, so this is about as far as I can push this proto-handbook, but if anyone wants to fork it and build on it then please feel free.

Most of the notes so far relate to A/V things, remote participation, and some climate considerations. Obviously a lot more about on-the-ground organisation would have to be added to make it a full handbook, but it’s a start.
