As there was thread started in the Barcamp Phnom Penh list about the Next Barcamp, there’s quite some people are interested in joining to make the event happen while the rest i think might also ready to join. Our first meeting was running quite well, 3 hours talk — kinda long, among 4 people me, @chris, @darren, and @paul from ECCC, few others cant come as they’re busy. We’ve talked around things that was happened at previous Barcamp (So many thing actually, but we sum mostly) and what’s the next one should be.

We were actually trying to figure out the date of the Event, but cannot decide as we seem finding a bit difficult to find the right venue. Some have suggested to use the previous one, CJCC, but it just doesnt work well; we prefer a new place, and some possible on the list maybe:

1. Somewhere behind Phnom Penh Center
2. ITC University
3. RUPP

There are what we can think of. Maybe you can suggest us more the better one for this kind of techie event/gathering?

There was also many stuffs that we have done at the first one. Mostly it’s done, so it’s much more easier for this second one to be organized.

So when will the Next Barcamp be? no answer yet! we’ll figure out on our next meeting. So for those volunteers who interested in making this event happen much better/bigger, please come to join us @t our next meeting, same time same place Saturday T&CWold Paster 3pm!

I might miss some point :-/ no time to review, cos off now! Comment for your ideas.

So sorry that i haven’t take any pictures but there should have some shared because I have noticed that most of the Cloggers were coming with a nice Nikon, Canon, … so where are the shots friends?

Also, look like everyone’s having a busy week time again? since i have found any of you guy sharing any post about the gathering, except Vutha and Tharum finally given you a BIG thank via email

Thanks indeed everyone for showing up and getting your friends on the boat together. Unfortunately, a few of us (who have received this email thread) couldn’t come (next time, hopefully).

Good enough that there was no rain until late night (when only a few of us left: Virak, Tharat, Vutha, John, and I were having some drink at Metro).

It’s as if there are many new graduated Cloggers; I missed to get Borin on the boat. Take a look at this: http://borin.ws/?p=106

Well, I’m glad you could make it for a no pressured time after your week-day of works and study to get to meet and talk to one another in your very own way.

Sopheap also had introduce us about her coming Youth Party this Sunday, 15. So why not contact Sopheap, I’ll see you there again.

This email to invite you for a get-together this weekend. It will happen this Sunday, June the 8th, from 5pm to 8pm. We’ll rent a boat for about 25 people. You’re welcome to bring your friends and colleagues along.

The boat rental price for the boat for 3 hours is $30. So, each person will pay about $2 (hopefully less if we can get the maximum number of people). Please bring your own snack and drink.
