I know we're all knee deep in testing this week, but I would like to talk about planning for our next hackfest. We've done 3 so far this cycle, and I'd like to squeeze in one more if we can before beta2 testing.

I'd love to hear preferred days/times, what you'd like to see covered / format (IRC vs g+ vs ?), etc. I'd like to see manual and automated tests being written and hacked on as part of the 'fest. Now is the time to get your feedback in :-)

To give you something concrete to work against, here's my thoughts on how I would run the fest.

We'll pick a 2-4? hour window on IRC on freenode in #ubuntu-quality
We'll encourage pending open bugs, aka, needed cases, to be try and closed as part of the fest
We'll commit and merge everything possible at the end of the fest
We'll celebrate with virtual party supplies once complete :-)

Happy testing,

Nicholas


Hello,
Well for me it would be better to hold the Hackfest at night after 20 UTC if it's during the week (I'm at work during the day :D ) or during the week-end in the afternoon (that is after 13 UTC).
For the duration 4 hours would be nice, the longer the better.
IRC or Google+ is the same.
Bye.
Carla

In the past we've done all day, but I found that a bit confusing, hence the specific timeframe. What if we had like a 12 hour window -- might that work out a bit better? Sounds like IRC will work well also. We can generate hangouts as needed. I setup this page to link everything since we're expanding beyond the initial automated testing hackfests (yay!).

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Hackfest

So I'd like to roll with Javier's and Sergio's idea. Can you guys setup this page linking out to our TODO bugs, help target some and give a little explanation (link out to tutorials, etc). Setup the page similar to the hackfest for the automated testing (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/AutomatedTesting/Hackfest).

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/ManualTestingHackfest

I went ahead and tried to link in the new hackfest page (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Hackfest) to the activities and contributing pages, but please feel free to edit the wiki accordingly to get this content linked in properly.

Finally, as to the date and time, how does March 19th 1200 UTC - 2300 UTC sound? That covers pretty much everyone I trust at some point during there waking hours, and lines up well for someone with expertise in each area to be around (at some point!) for each type of test being contributed.

If we don't get any complaints, I'd like to start broadcasting this time/date tomorrow to everyone. Thanks!

Nicholas
