3rd Docker Birthday Celebration

Bangalore Docker Community celebrated Docker’s 3rd Birthday on 26th March’16 at Huawei’s Bangalore office. Suraj has written a  great report about the event. So I would cover some other points.

• More than 400 RSVPed for the event, so we had to divide the group in two batches and we were expecting ~100 in each. Due to long weekend we had ~70 people in first batch and ~35 in second batch. We could have easily accommodated everyone is one batch, if people have updated RSVPs accordingly. Please do not RSVP is you don’t plan to come.
• Few of us discussed that in India we mostly have the user base and hardly have any committer to Docker.  To start contributing back to the project,  we decided to start doing beta testing for Docker releases.
• Also we thought of doing small hackathon’s in which we’ll start going through Docker code base and learn from it.

I hope participants have learned something new during the training. I would like to thank Venkata Nagesh, Sreenivas Makam, Janki Chhatbar, Shubham Minglani, Suraj Deshmukh, Durga Prasad, Zeeshan Ahmed  for volunteering as mentor.  Special thanks for our hosts at Huawei, Krishna and Vinay.
