Hi everybody, The Darcs Team will soon be hosting its fifth hacking sprint this October. We would be delighted if you could join us.
http://wiki.darcs.net/Sprints/2010-10 Details ------- When: 15-17 October 2010 Where: Orleans, France Who Anybody who wants to hack on Darcs (or Camp, Focal, etc) Beginners especially welcome! Why: Darcs aims to have bi-annual hacking sprints so that we can get together on a regular basis, hold design discussions, hack up a storm and have a lot fun. What: We'll be starting work on the next release after the upcoming Darcs 2.5. Could we see a much fast darcs over networks? Friendlier darcs annotate? Exciting times ahead... We intend to set aside at least one Darcs hacker for mentoring beginners, so if you're new to Haskell or to Darcs hacking, here's a good chance to plunge in and start working on a real world project. How: Email me <[email protected]> to let me know you're interested! Keep in mind that we do have funds to help pay for travel expenses; just let me know if you'd like to come :-) Thanks ------ Thanks to team Florent Becker and University of Orleans for generously offering to host this event! Thanks also to donors from the fundraising drive this year. We'll be using that money to help Darcs hackers get to Orleans Supporting Darcs ---------------- Darcs is a very happy member of the Software Freedom Conservancy.
