Host a future ACHUB event! - looks like we have some ideas for future ones

 

There are 7 guidelines which govern what may or may not be called a ACHUB event. If your planned event meets all 6, you can call it a ACHUB event.

 

  1. All attendees must be treated equally.
  2. All content created must be released under a Creative Commons license: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/
  3. All attendees must be allowed to participate. (subject to limitations of physical space, of course)
  4. All sessions and events must be free of charge to attend.
  5. All sessions must obey the Law of 2 Feet - if you're not getting what you want out of the session, you can and should walk out and do something else. It's not like you have to get your money's worth!
  6. The event must be new-media focused.
  7. The financials of a ACHUB event must be fully disclosed in an open ledger, except for any donor/sponsor who wishes to remain anonymous.
