[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reminder for Conference proposals

[Geoff Sams]

I’m not sure that I’d be speaking for a majority, but I’d like to see some of the more difficult requests for information that you may have gotten.  Okay, maybe moderately difficult for you, I’m not asking for the magnum opus “weeding query” (I think that was what you said it was anyway, it’s been almost a year now) that you showed a snippet of last year.  But sometimes I get requests that don’t seem feasibly possible in reports that if I were a bit more comfortable I’d be happy to tackle in SQL.  I feel bad because I don’t have an example coming to mind today, but if I think of something I’d be happy to forward it along.

Other than that, perhaps a mashup between SQL and reports would be helpful to some?  Showing how certain choices translate between reports and SQL?  I’m not sure if that would be helpful or not really, but it seemed like an idea.

Thanks,

If I do a hands on workshop (I threw a rough proposal up) what kinds of sql tasks would folks like to step through as learning examples?

I had been hoping to do a half day session this year but I was under the impression that format wasn't an option this year.  I may have misunderstood though.  Heck, I'll put one on the proposal listing and we'll see what works out in the wash.

I'm game for that.  Heck I'll take requests if someone finds me space in the schedule.  I'm willing to do anything useful to others.  I learn from others continually in the community so I'm glad to do what I can.

What would you like?  Something like a workshop?

>>Something like the half day tutorial would be terrific! Having your session last year on Saturday (and only 1 hour) made it difficult to digest, and I left the conference wanting more. Heck, you could just re-present your session from 2014! I will still attend it every year. ☺

I’m really hoping that Rogan (or someone) will be doing a longer SQL session this year! ☺
