I am pleased to announce that there will be an OpenGuides hackfest in Bermondsey, London, on the weekend of 9th-10th June 2007.
In brief:
When: noon-10pm Saturday 9th June, noon-5pm Sunday 10th June Where: Kake/Bob/doop house, near Bermondsey station What: Bug triage and bug fixing Who: Programmers and testers
The focus of the hackfest will be bug triage and bug fixing. Everyone who can contribute is welcome, both programmers and testers.
The venue is Kake's and Bob's and doop's house, a couple of minutes' walk from Bermondsey station, which is one stop east along the Jubilee line from London Bridge station. Please contact me at kake@earth.li if you don't already know the address - for those with livejournal accounts there's a friends-locked post with address and directions at http://nou.livejournal.com/67884.html
We'll start on the Saturday around noon with introductions and an initial discussion (I'll provide lunch; let me know if you have a dietary restriction that isn't covered by "vegan"). We'll continue until people are tired (no later than 10pm), probably ordering some form of takeaway for dinner. We'll reconvene on Sunday, again at noon, but probably knock off a bit earlier, say 5pm-6pm.
Please feel free to come to some or all of this. Any form of structure will be decided as we go along.

A reminder that this is this weekend! noon-10pm on Saturday, noon-5pm on Sunday.
If you don't know my address, and think there is any chance, however small, that you might want to come, please email me. Asking for the address does not commit you to coming.
Please bring a laptop if you can, preferably wireless-enabled.
Lunch will be provided both days; shout if you have a dietary restriction not covered by "vegan". Juice, tea, coffee, cocoa will be provided throughout the day; if you want fizzy drinks then you're welcome to bring some.
If you can't make it in person, do note that people will probably be keeping an eye on IRC during the day. If there's a specific time you'd like there to be someone available to be an IRC<->hackfest gateway, then do let me know (though I can't guarantee anything).

I'll not be able to attend in person but will be able to do some stuff on Saturday hopefully. I'm going to see if I can create an "openguide innabox". So expect lots of annoying questions from this OG noob about how to set the blasted thing up in the first place.
If people could point me at OG Debian packages beforehand I'd be most grateful.
