I spoke with kmkale about the hackfest. We have no alternative option for the hackfest: the week before the main conference is a holiday week in india, so, everything closed. The hackfest *must* be after the main conf. As the main conf ends on wed, the best option we see is: * thursday => break * friday -> tuesday (so *including sunday*) hackfest. * as for previous hackfest, any attendee is free to leave when needed. I like the idea of having 2 separate rooms dedicated to differents things (training, hacking,...) Does anyone have another idea/suggestion ? -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc Tel : (33) 4 91 81 35 08 _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
