Is there any plan to write down and post more of the surrounding content like activities/lectures/etc.?
How does CFAR feel about “off-brand”/”knockoff” versions of these workshops being run at meetups? If OK with it, how should those be announced/disclaimed to make it clear that they’re not affiliated with CFAR?
I’m interested in this as an organizer, and based on conversations at the meetup organizers’ retreat this weekend, I think a number of other organizers would be interested as well.
There aren’t currently plans to write up e.g. descriptions of the classes and activities, but there are lots of people who have been to CFAR workshops who can offer their anecdotes, and you may be able to reach out to CFAR directly for descriptions of what a workshop is like.
(Also, there are going to be workshops in Europe this fall that you could attend if you want.)
As for spreading off-brand versions of the content: CFAR is enthusiastically pro the idea! Their main request is just that you clearly headline:
That CFAR originated the content you’re attempting to convey (e.g. credit them for terms like “TAPs”)
That you are teaching your version of CFAR’s TAPs (or whatever); that this is “what I, Maia, got out of attempting to learn the CFAR technique called TAPs.”
As long as you’re crediting the creators and not claiming to speak with authority about the thing you’re teaching, CFAR is (very) happy to have other people spreading the content.
Couple questions about this sequence.
