This article is a stub. You can help the microformats.org wiki by expanding it.

This page is for organizing a party for the upcoming 4th birthday of http://microformats.org. One of several microformats events.

If you'd like to help out, please add your name!

sponsors

Please sign up to sponsor the microformats.org 4th birthday party!

  • ...

planners

I'm donating my time before the event to help plan and make the party happen!

  • Tantek Çelik - coordinating
  • Rohit Khare - venue, sponsors
  • Kevin Marks - venue, sponsors
  • Ben Ward - tshirts, sponsors
    • contact Dan Cederholm re: current/previous design and vendor used
  • Lauren Scime - design / venue / sponsors / publicity?
    • party graphics - Main Upcoming graphic, badges/banners to put on your blog, other print collateral such as stickers & possibly buttons??? Other suggestions for graphics/collateral?
    • possibly redesign the "Microformats Cheat Sheet" - either for party or at least by MicroformatsDevCamp, also will communicate with venue, sponsors
  • Jeremy Anderson - will help Lauren w/design, etc.

We need:

  • a volunteer coordinator. someone to coordinate the volunteers listed below.
  • stickers - Lauren is on it
  • tshirts - Ben is on it

volunteers

Sign up to be a volunteer! We need volunteers to check people in at the door, take donations, hand out stickers, t-shirts etc.

  • ...

donations

Some thoughts on donations:

  • take donations at the door, sliding scale $5-$20. $10 or more gets you a t-shirt.
  • donations go towards the party and microformatsDevCamp this summer.

attending

I want to show up and help celebrate so I'm signing up here and stating what dates work for me:

  • ...

location

There are several possibilities for venue, let's figure out what makes the most sense:

  • 111 Minna
  • 21st Amendment mezzanine
    • capacity: 38 people seated, ~50 standing drinks plus appetizers.
    • cost: no charge for user groups
  • Varnish
    • available for the 20th;
    • costs $350/hr with non-profit discount (one hour setup is free)
  • Bambuddah Lounge (@ the Pheonix Hotel Tenderloin area) -
    • pros: it's cute and trendy, art on the walls, can do all cash bar or buy packages by the hour (I think for totally open bar it was going to be $25/pp but I could call the girl there and see if we could purchase drink tix or something to give to ea. person) - they have Hors D'Voures (spelling?) - most are $3 - $4/pp, definitely can accommodate a full crowd.
    • cons: Might be more pricey than some places, never hosted anything there before
  • The Gallery Lounge or DaDa SF
    • Gallery Lounge is on Brannan St. near 4th St. & Dada is on 2nd near Mission. Both are available for private & corporate parties - no rental fee, just a minimum bar tab based on approx. party size. No food but possible we could cater separately if we can find a donation? Will email/call & follow up.

date

We could do this on either June 19th (Friday) or June 20th (Saturday) depending on venue and attendee availability.
