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.orgsummarizing
all that was done by everyone
Those who have participated will also get XWiki T-Shirts.
Anyone interested in joining the fun?
I definitely will.
cool :)
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.
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.
Idea: make lolcommit mandatory for every
hackaton-related commit ! (see
https://github.com/mroth/lolcommits/)
Would be fun, need to find some time to try it out.
Thanks
