(You know you are old if you have forgotten how to play Tetris&#8230; )<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our &#8220;show master&#8221; Christian Kram <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/chr_kram\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/chr_kram\">@chr_kram<\/a> really grew into this role very well! Thanks to him and the audience and the background support (by J\u00f6rg Sievers), it almost felt like a party. The last people had a bad start the next morning due to too little sleep ;-).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, that evening we decided to help others grow. As our keynote speaker Lisi Hocke <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lisihocke\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lisihocke\">@lisihocke<\/a> had decided to offer her speaker&#8217;s fee to <a href=\"https:\/\/moinworld.de\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/moinworld.de\">Moinworld e.V.<\/a>, the barcampers followed Thomas Rinke&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thomrinke\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thomrinke\">@thomrinke<\/a> suggestion to add to it.

Using BigBlueButton hosted by a German Provider (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.senfcall.de\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.senfcall.de\">Senfcall<\/a>) was a good descision &#8211; not only the stability was fine, but also the functionality was supporting. (And J\u00f6rg Sievers (Jogi) helped us through any potential issues). So we had both, a session tool and data protection according to DSGVO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"381\" src=\"https:\/\/testhexen.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/E-bbx6eXIAEnjVZ.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2862\" srcset=\"https:\/\/testhexen.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/E-bbx6eXIAEnjVZ.jpg 680w, https:\/\/testhexen.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/E-bbx6eXIAEnjVZ-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/testhexen.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/E-bbx6eXIAEnjVZ-357x200.jpg 357w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><figcaption>Open Space topics in QS Barcamp 2021<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As usual, I had major problems deciding where to go. Everything sounded so interesting. With four parallel slots you had to take choices. And there always was some FOMO&#8230; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I really loved the sessions I participated in. Amazing how much you can learn from and with this wonderful community &#8211; even after 30 years of experience. Everybody has different aspects to bring into the room! Techniques, psychology, fun, methods, &#8230; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, the participants in the barcamp made a point in mindful communication. It is so great to be able to feel safe in every session and in every group! But is is also helping every participant to communicate in such a way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So growing as tester and as human &#8211; what else could you expect from a barcamp! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next year will be a real challenge to top this barcamp!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before I forget: A big thank you to <a href=\"https:\/\/qs-barcamp.de\/#sponsoren\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/qs-barcamp.de\/#sponsoren\">our sponsors<\/a> who made this possible! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As every year aound this time, testers of germany united to exchange knowledge, experience, feelings, words, tricks, results, &#8230; No, it is not a bazar, not a conference, but the Hamburg QS barcamp (https:\/\/qs-barcamp.de)!
