Two OFBiz related presentations were delivered Apachecon Core NA 2016  in Vancouver, Canada. Summary abstracts of the presentations were as follows:

Abstract Summary: It's OK - Consensus Reached. We've agreed to disagree!

The Apache Way tells us that we need to try and run our projects using consensus as much of possible – but what does it actually mean to the man or woman on the ground? Ask 5 different people what they understand by consensus you will probably get 5 different answers but that doesn't mean that we haven't achieved it.

In this presentation Sharan will talk about about how becoming part of an Apache project has educated her about the role and use of consensus, and that applying it in real life can be a bit more challenging than the theory.

Abstract Summary: OFBiz Configuration Only (Or Look No Code!)

Following on from the success of the OFBiz track at Apachecon EU 2015 in Budapest, we are starting preparations for Apachecon NA 2016 which will take place in Vancouver, Canada 11th - 13th May 2016.

In preparation we would like to try and prepare for talks across a wide range of areas so that we will have a good mix of topics. Some possible categories could be:

  • Introduction (e.g. to ofbiz in general or a specific application, the framework and services, where we are and state of the project)

  • Business (e.g. how OFBiz is being used and which industries, etc)

  • Technical (e.g. Tools, Extensions, Configuration)

  • Development (e.g. getting started, building a new application, modifiying an existing one,)

  • Case Study/User Story (e.g. implementation story, challenges and successes etc)

  • Panel Discussion (e.g. Open source ERP vs Commercial etc)

  • Tutorial

  • Wildcard

  • Community (e.g. something that could appeal to the Apache community in general that may be part of a separate community track)

If you interested in submitting or presenting a talk about what you have done with OFBiz - whether as an enhancement, a case study or something else -  please feel free to add a line to following table and add a child page with the abstract and main points.
