Hey all, we had a pretty successful GTK+ hackfest in 2010 that really helped us getting GTK+ 3 out the door. It would be great to repeat this experience, and an opportunity for this has opened up recently:
There is a possibility that we could do a GTK+ hackfest in Brno, Czech, in February 2012. This would be in connection with the 'Developer Conference' that is happening February 17-18th 2012 at Masaryk University, Brno This event is strongly supported and coordinated by the Red Hat engineering offices in Brno. The hackfest can be longer than these two days, e.g. February 17-21 would be possible. We already have 2 other GNOME hackfest prospects for this weekend, one by the docs team (https://live.gnome.org/Hackfests/BrnoDocs2012) and one by the accessibility team. We are still investigating the details about room availability during and after the conference, but it should be possible to accomodate 10-12 GTK+ people. Possible topics for the GTK+ hackfest that I would like to see on the agenda: - a11y (use the synergy with the accessibility team next room) - clutter (review whats happened on the clutter side, and plan next steps - for this, we'd really need some clutter folk to attend...) - touch (I hope to move the 'kinetic scrolling' patches before the hackfest, but there's plenty of other touch and input-related things to discuss - this topic would really benefit from carlos' presence...) - platform support (in particular if we can get some of the Win32 and OS X people to attend) I think this should be sufficient for an initial announcement; I'll get a wiki page up in the next few days with more details and a place to register your interest in coming. Hope to see you in Brno, Matthias _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
