When and Where
ADD VENUE AND DATE
New Orleans,
Room
1 room for 4 days that seats 40 to 60 people
Need to have seats, tables, good internet, power sockets (maybe extensions), whiteboards, screen for displaying?
What about food and drinks? Do we have something available all the time? Do we look for a sponsor?
Initial Strategies
Contact VP and Communities of Projects with tracks at ApacheCon to see if they want to hold a hackathon session
Each day have an 'entry level session' for new contributors to get involved with projects (Goal could be doing a first contribution)
If projects want to hold a big hackathon then we could 'reserve' slots in the room but will allow others to use any remaining space
If projects want to include committers who will not be at the venue, they can also arrange for video conferencing.
