Hi Alexey,
Thanks for the feedback! I just wanted to add some clarification. I
think the expectation was that this would mostly be a remote hackaway
that would allow DIG members to, at a minimum, set aside the time they
need to work on documentation while communicating via IRC, Google
Hangout or by some other means (Have we selected a platform for this?).
For many of us, documentation falls to the bottom of our to-do list, and
just setting aside that time to meet virtually was one way to force
ourselves to get the work done.
However, since several active contributors to DIG work in close
proximity to each other, we saw that there was an opportunity for some
of us to meet in person at the same time that the whole group is meeting
virtually. If we were indeed to plan an in-person hackaway, I would
expect that we not only would do more advanced planning, but also
implement a wider process for finding a site host and perhaps to find a
sponsor to defray some costs. I don't know how it is for other DIG
members, but I would find it difficult to justify traveling out of state
for a DIG hackaway, and I expect that I most likely would attend other
hackaways (if future ones are planned) virtually.

Hello, everybody.
I thought this was a great idea. The timeline for this particular meeting was a
bit aggressive for me though, considering the need to arrange funding,
authorization and travel, etc. If this becomes a yearly or more frequent event
in the future, I would certainly like to join if I can, but would need more
time to plan -- probably at least 2 months, with 3-4 months being closer to
ideal, if that's possible.
I hope you have a productive hackaway and a good time!
Alexey

Hello,
Looks like with only 4 members voting, Friday October 5th is the front runner.
I just pre-emptively reserved the conference room for that day, in case we
ultimately end up picking that day.
Folks, don't forget to cast your vote,
Yamil
