The polling for a date for the Evergreen DIG Hack-away has closed. It will be held on Friday, November 15 in the Boston area. Stay tuned for more information about the Hack-away as well as preliminary AsciiDoc trainings. Thanks to everyone who responded to the poll. If you did NOT, but are interested in participating with the Hack-away or considering participation, please note that you are still welcome. You just don't get to help choose the date anymore ;-).
