Hi Vincent and devs Sounds interesting, unfortunately the announcement was pretty late and we did not manage to discuss it before today. The bad news is, we (Fabian Pichler and I) can not free the next 10 days, the good news is we think we can squeeze in 2-3 days to get one of our many extensions to run on the current XWiki version. The older among you maybe remember: we built Celements, a content management system on XWiki and wanted to share some of our things for a long time, but until now it never happened. This could be the chance to finally get started. We just talked about which extensions XWiki could be most interested in and thought we let you decide between a selection of three extensions: 1. Layouts: one skin to rule them all ;-) A skin which allows to freely create layouts (advanced templating for XWiki) which can be chosen per page. 2. Photos: Allows more image formats and manipulations than the ImagePlugin. 3. Publish: A document with an according object attached needs edit rights to view outside the publication time frame. We kept the description here intentionally short. For more details, see: http://www.celements.ch/Hackathon2013 Thanks Edo Beutler On Mon, Jul 15, 2013 at 12:14 PM, Vincent Massol <[email protected]> wrote:
Hi devs and community at large,
Every year XWiki SAS (http://xwiki.com) gathers all its employees for a Seminar and every year we have an internal hackathon.
For example here are the results of last year: - 2012: http://www.xwiki.com/lang/en/Company/Hackathon2012 - 2011: http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Company/Hackathon2011
This year the Hackathon will run for 10 days!
Thus we thought it could be a good idea to invite the XWiki Community to join us for a mega distributed Hackathon!
So here's how I think we could organize it:
* Start date: 17th of July. A mail will be posted on this day to announce the start * End date: 25th of July. A mail will be posted on this day to announce the end * Gathering results: from 29 to 6th of August. Everyone who participated should reply to the end of hackathon mail with what they did and post their stuff on http://extensions.xwiki.org or elsewhere * On around the 6th of August we'll have a blog post written on xwiki.orgsummarizing all that was done by everyone
Those who have participated will also get XWiki T-Shirts.
Anyone interested in joining the fun?
Thanks -Vincent with my XWiki SAS employee hat
