I was thinking about this myself the other day. One of the interesting things that the ruby/rails community has (perhaps others, but ruby/rails seems to push it more) is the idea of a hackfest - a night(usually a few hours) or a weekend, where people get together to get something useful done. This might be writing a very simple app, but it could also be to work on a plug-in, or fix specific bugs. I wonder if there would interest to do something similar for s2?

Well, OK, S2.1 (but the title wouldn't sound so catchy).

A push is being made for a high quality 2.1 GA release, and in order to do this the codebase needs a jolly good thrashing in every way imaginable, and the best way of doing this is to write S2.1 apps (and don't worry, the codebase loves a good thrashing).

So, in the space of 5 working days, what can you produce that uses S2.1?

On Monday I started writing a webapp that you can now play with at http://www.lifefeed.info/, so it's possible to write at least something in that amount of time :).

So come on, show us what you can do!!!!

P.S. For those who are interested, in order to cut down on the coding time I used Hibernate, Sitemesh, and the S2.1 REST plugin. Feel like trying a better combination?
