[xwiki-devs] [ANN] XWiki Summer 2012 Hackathon
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: http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Company/Hackathon2011 Previously the Hackathon was a 1 day event only. However this year we're changing the format; it'll run for 8 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: 20th of July. A mail will be posted on this day to announce the start * End date: 27th of July. A mail will be posted on this day to announce the end * Gathering results: from 28th 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.org summarizing 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

I definitely will. I think it would be great to setup a space somewhere to post pictures to, so that there is better bonding for whomever wants to participate remotely - like I will. Idea: make lolcommit mandatory for every hackaton-related commit ! (see https://github.com/mroth/lolcommits/) Jerome

I've started a Hackathon2012 space on xwiki.org: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Hackathon2012/WebHome We can have one page per project and link them from the home page Everyone, feel free to edit and modify it.

Would be fun, need to find some time to try it out. Thanks -Vincent
