Summary[edit]
With over 30 years in organizing various types of events for the open culture communities, Ellie will share her experiences. Besides the best and worst practices, I will endeavor to share lessons learned in event planning and strategy, and how you can scale/leverage ....

(I will sort this summary/description out a bit more when I have had more time... just now finishing up Wikimania :-)
