Dear OOo hackers,
the OOoCon just ended, and we realize how little time we can spend
together face2face each year. To properly fix that problem, we hereby
announce the next event around OpenOffice.org - a HackFest in Hamburg,
specifically targeted to developers, to give all of us more face time &
collectively work on the code.
The OpenOffice.org HackFest will take place on the weekend of November
6./7. 2010 in the "Attraktor" in Hamburg, and a tentative program could
look like this:
* Friday night - beer & fun, warming up
* Saturday morning - Intro talks, Hands-on sessions
* Saturday afternoon/night - collective hacking, bug fixing
* Sunday morning - wrap-up, review, document
For those who are in need for a bursary, we have a limited travel
funding budget available. For sleeping, couchsurfing at the organizers
is available. Be aware that would be in an unheated loft, so bringing a
sleeping mat and a good sleeping bag would be essential. For more
comfortable reasonably priced acommodations see the wiki page at
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Sleeping_in_Hamburg
We look forward to meet you there, stay tuned for further announcements
around programme and sponsoring! To register yourself, just drop a short
note to hackf...@openoffice.org and we'll follow up with further
information soon.
