Hello EasyBuilders,
We're happy to announce the 6th edition of the EasyBuild hackathon
taking place Wed-Fri June 18-20th 2014 in Vienna (Austria), shortly
before the ISC'14 conference in Leipzig.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) Lmod and improving
the EasyBuild testing infrastructure.
EasyBuild hackathons are 3-day informal events to get your hands dirty
with EasyBuild.
They are intended for both beginners and experienced EasyBuild users,
and focus on getting hands-on experience with EasyBuild, working
(together) on support for new software, and enhancing the EasyBuild
framework by fixing bugs or adding new features.
Attendees work on their own pace on topics they are interested in, with
the support of fellow attendees and EasyBuild developers.
More information on the 6th EasyBuild hackathon, including a preliminary
agenda and a list of confirmed attendees, is available at
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild/wiki/6th-EasyBuild-hackathon.
Attendance is free but limited to about 20 people, logistics (travel &
hotel) need to be covered at own expense.
For practical reasons, registration is required; let me know if you're
planning to attend.

regards,
Kenneth
