| | 1 | = OpenVPN Hackathon 2013 = |
| | 2 | |
| | 3 | == who == |
| | 4 | |
| | 5 | This is organized by Gert Döring (cron2) and sponsored by Spacenet AG (http://www.space.net/). |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | We have space for about 10 people in the conference room I have booked so far, so I'd limit this to "active developers that are also regularily contributing to #openvpn-devel or the mailing list". If there is overwhelming interest, I can get a larger room, but then the address listed below would change (still in Munich, but not as centrally located). |
| | 8 | |
| | 9 | == where? == |
| | 10 | |
| | 11 | We'll meet in one of the office locations of Spacenet. The address is: |
| | 12 | |
| | 13 | {{{ |
| | 14 | SpaceNet AG |
| | 15 | Landsberger Strasse 155 |
| | 16 | 80687 München (Munich) |
| | 17 | Germany |
| | 18 | }}} |
| | 19 | |
| | 20 | see [https://maps.google.de/maps?q=Landsberger+Stra%C3%9Fe+155,+M%C3%BCnchen&hl=de&ie=UTF8&ll=48.139892,11.526031&spn=0.002957,0.003358&sll=48.917413,11.407993&sspn=4.216739,6.877441&oq=landsb&hnear=Landsberger+Stra%C3%9Fe+155,+Laim+80687+M%C3%BCnchen&t=h&z=18 google maps]. The entrance is in the upper left corner on the inside of the "#" formed building. |
| | 21 | |
| | 22 | This location is easy to reach by car or by public transport (Tram from central station). Details will follow. |
| | 23 | |
| | 24 | == when? == |
| | 25 | |
| | 26 | The hackathon will take place from Nov 15 (Friday), 2013 to Nov 17 (Sunday). The room is ours for the full 3 days, and I (cron2) will be there at Friday 09:30-ish. I have no confirmed arrival dates from anyone else yet... |
| | 27 | |
| | 28 | == food == |
| | 29 | |
| | 30 | I'll sponsor soft drinks and snacks, and the conference room. Depending on the number of people in the end, I'll sponsor a "Weisswurstfrühstück" for Sunday. |
| | 31 | |
| | 32 | For lunch, there's lots of nice small restaurants in the area, so we'll find something better than in Brussels. |
| | 33 | |
| | 34 | For dinner, nothing particular has been planned yet. |
| | 35 | |
| | 36 | == what? == |
| | 37 | |
| | 38 | So what is the goal of the Hackathon? |
| | 39 | |
| | 40 | * meet in person, talk about things |
| | 41 | * contributors agreement for OpenVPN 3 |
| | 42 | * future development of 2.x and 3.x |
| | 43 | * hack on the 2.4 codebase - there's a number of "large" things we could try to tackle |
| | 44 | * dual-stack patches |
| | 45 | * openvpn interactive service |
| | 46 | * work on open trac issues |
| | 47 | * lots of things to review and bugs to fix |
| | 48 | |
| | 49 | I'm all open for additions here - I think the meetings in Brussels have shown that "just being able to sit together and hack" is a useful excercise. Add reasonable food, air condition, etc. and things should be even better. |
| | 50 | |
| | 51 | == Internet == |
| | 52 | |
| | 53 | of course there will be free WiFi available, and for bandwidth junkies, wired Internet as well :-) - Spacenet is an Internet service provider, and that's one of their core locations, connected with multiple 10Gbit links to the world... |
