I can commit to December 19-20th. If anybody has a strong objection to those dates please speak up soon, otherwise I'd like to consider those dates fixed.
Regardless of date, does anyone have an opinion on topics? - Steve made a good point that UI code is probably a good topic for newbies, as it generally shouldn't require deep knowledge of Freenet. - Dean also mentioned just generally "bug squashing", I think I'd prefer to be slightly more focused but it could work well. - I don't believe localization should be a primary focus of this hackathon, but it might be a good secondary topic, or topic of a future hackathon. - If the veteran-to-newbie ratio is high, perhaps some deeper topics could be attempted. We'll know closer to the date what to expect. If that were the situation, do any veterans have some particular bugs they'd want to attempt? Any other suggestions?
