[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen conference programs: Why Evergreen, and how do we get there?

[Karen Schneider]

We on the planning committee have had some very good questions about the
conference programs, and I'll quote one (almost) verbatim:

"Would attending this first Evergreen conference likely be useful for
someone who doesn't use Evergreen now, but would like a sort-of
crash-course?  I'm more interested in seeing and hearing basic
implementation stories and technical issues that tend to crop up in early
stages of Evergreen deployment; will that be a part of the tracks?"

The answer: absolutely! Consider this a track-within-a-track that can cross
functional lines (staff, tech, admin). Success stories, getting-started
stories, how and why you selected Evergreen, the value of using Evergreen,
how you made the pitch -- consider these for full programs, as well as
lightning talks and even Birds of a Feather sessions where you can swap
tales and tips.

If you're trying to persuade stakeholders of the economic and technical
feasibility of Evergreen, this is a great conference to attend.
