The idea of a hackfest was mooted at the recent London.pm social. Topics for the session:
- Munging CGI::Wiki into Wiki::Toolkit. - General OpenGuides hackery.
The venue would be my place, unless someone has an objection - bandwidth in both wireless and wired varieties is available. We would get food (pizza?). Date - probably a Sunday. Some time soon.
Who's up for it?
As long as I am still in London (i.e. soon), I'm in!

I'll try and make it. If people pester me. I'll even cook food if asked nicely. :-) (at my place an brought round to Earle's.)
I am particularly interested in chatting about photos.

Maybe count me in. I'm not particularly interested in the CGI or Wiki bits of it, but in interesting library hackage, like Geo or Phone stuff.

Hmm, can we persuade a Palm programmer to come and help a palm OG get off the ground? :)

Errm, I *am* a Palm programmer. Admittedly a very lazy one though who hasn't *done* much for over a year, and really only a beginner.
It would probably be easiest to just make it Avantgo-friendly.

That would be *much* less useful. Consider offline searches, for a start.

Do we have any data on what it is that people generally search by? If so, maybe this could be avoided by appropriate index pages.

The "killer search" for a mobile implementation would be "find me all pubs that serve food in Locale $bar/without 100m of coordinates $foo" and so on. I don't know if that can be adequately expressed in preset queries. I suspect not.

A wap version is the answer! really it is. wap isnt dead. honest.
and actaully wouldnt be that hard to implement.
Hi, I am intrigued by your mention of geo and Phone stuff and library hackage. What's that mean? Are you interested in stuff like http://symbianos.org/index.php?nav=projects_7
Can you have a wiki on a mobile phone? Openguide on mobile nets?

I'll try and make it. Incidentally, what is parking like where you live? I need to drive into London and pick something up at some point, so this might be a convenient opportunity.
I think I'm free weekends until 20th November, but my palm has just died so I can't be sure.

If this is going to happen soon, then it's very unlikely I'll be well enough to make it. Can you manage without me?
