Yep, if you look at the Hackathon schedule you should see that it has been
scheduled for Thursday afternoon at 2pm. Hope you can make it!

 Hello,

 Does anyone have planned a meeting during Wikimania about next Hackathon's
 organization ?
 I believe it would be useful to know who of us still want to organize,
 after informations which was forwarded by former organizers, and how we
 could collaborate to choose the next (co-)organizer.

 I will be around the Wikimania Hackathon this afternoon and tomorrow, let
 me know if you're interested with this discussion.
 (Jean-Frederic  Sylvain are also available)

  Wikimedia France really wants to organize an international event in 2015.

 it could be a waste of time for one of us to position our proposals against

Hi,

WMFr is still thinking about organizing Wikimedia Hackathon in 2015. We are 
currently identifying the technical, financial and especially human resources 
needed to make it a success.

Frans, could you provide me/us your documentation or the link (Meta ?) ? It 
would be very useful.

  I doubt if these tools are similar. But I do think they can benefit from
  each other.

an article is already written, it is possible with this tool to

existing articles and to update articles with a new section when on

more languages and helps users to keep the articles up-to-date.
   
I have tested the Bèta version of this tool and these tests were very
successful.

 So far there are no candidates to organize the next Wikimedia Hackathon in
 Europe. If any chapter, thorg, or group of volunteers is thinking about
 applying, please let us know. We want to announce the new host at
 Wikimania.

 Very important: the budget for the Wikimedia Hackathon 2015 will be
 discussed and eventually approved as an independent Project and Event Fund.
 This means that organizers will be able to define the budget and manage it
 without depending on general chapter funds and FDC rounds. This will avoid
 any risk of budget cuts caused by factors alien to the hackathon
 organization, a problem we have seen in previous editions. Background:

  The Wikimedia technical community wants to have another hackathon next
  year in Europe. Who will organize it?
 
  Interested parties, check https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Hackathons
 
  We would like to confirm a host by Wikimania, latest.
 
  The same call goes for India and other locations with a good
 concentration
  of Wikimedia contributors and software developers. Come on, step in. We
  want to increase our geographical diversity of technical contributors.
