Our experience in Brazil told us that there is a lot of time spent in
the first pull, dependecies download & setup and make (with make fetch).
With 4 hours and several people doing the same thing will likely clogg
the network and waste time.

You can possibly download the source tarball to spare time in a pen
drive (just do a pull to update), but the other dependencies will be
affected by each ones computer. The first "make all" will also take a
lot of time.

Ideally people should come with a sucessfull first compilation: then the
fun begins. To do that, a preparation beforehand with the attendees is
necessary.

Whish you all a fun hacking anyway.
