Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Elementary Hackfest
This year i can't attend any hackfest either...after this year i will be more free... 2012/10/3 xapantu xapa...@gmail.com Hi, I am living in Paris now. Just for your information, I will not attend to any hackfest if it is not during my holidays, my studies are overwhelming me (:P). But if it is during my holidays, and in Europe, I will probably come (but I can buy my train tickets myself, from Paris to Frankfurt it is approximatively 100€ (~130$ I think)). Maybe only one day, I am not sure... It would be great, and would speed up the development :) Lucas Le 03/10/2012 18:48, Florian Reifschneider a écrit : I'm currently attending university in Frankfurt (computer science at Goethe Univerity), so if Frankfurt would be decided on for the location, I could try to get some kind of support from the university and certainly help to organize on site.
