ApacheCon North America 2013 Conference Hackathon - Monday 25th February
We will once again have a Hackathon at ApacheCon North America! The Hackathon will be taking place on Monday 25th February, from 10am. That's the day before the main conference starts, so come along early if you can. The Hackathon will run from 10am (to give us time to get everything setup), until about 6pm. Everyone is welcome!
(We're not yet sure about if we can provide lunch / drinks / snacks during the hackathon or not. We should know that a little nearer the time, once we've hopefully snagged a sponsor!)
Summary
- What - Apache Hackathon: Testing, Bug Fixing, New Features, Documentation, Brainstorming, Design and more!
- Where - TBC (but it'll be in the conference veue)
- When - Monday 25th February, from 10am - 6pm
- Then what - Some sort of drinks, details TBC
- Who - Everyone interested in getting involved in Apache Projects!
Everyone is welcome to attend the hackathon! Whether you're coming to the conference or just local, whether you're an existing committer or not, whether you're a coder or a writer or a designer or a tester, you'll all have a chance to get involved!
When you arrive at the venue, we'll have a board / display / poster up listing what projects are on what tables, and descriptions of the hackathons taking place. If you've already signed up for a hackathon, you can head straight to your table and get started! If you don't have a specific project in mind, you can consult the board to find likely suspects based on your interests and skills, then go and find the project table and they'll help you get started.
