hackfest went, and I've heard there'll be a small report about it too.
But the general feeling seems to be that it was really useful.
One of the things the Board wants to see happen this year is hackfests,

So if you can think of a topic that would be suitable for a hackfest,
please talk about it with a few people and share your idea.

While this may not be a hot topic on everyone mind, but that fit the
criteria that Luis
and many others have raised:
