Based on the lack of responses here, I'm going to assume we'll continue to have small gatherings of like-minded folks instead of a big-bang hackfest. We've already an integration hackfest at Brocade a few weeks back and there's a documentation hackfest planned before ONS: https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Events#Docfest_at_ONS
If there are more such events, let's list them on the Events page and try to advertise them as broadly as we can. --Colin On Thu, Dec 22, 2016 at 11:11 PM, Phil Robb <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello OpenDaylight Developers: > > We have historically had a hackfest... aka an opportunity for everyone to > get into a room together, sometime just before code freeze so that all > cross-project dependencies could be reviewed and subsequent testing could > be worked on. > > Over the past few releases though, the attendance to the hackfests have > been going down.
