We can try, but I see more of a salted boiling water balancing... It 
should be clear, though, that only code hackers and TDF volunteers will 
be able to eat hacked pasta. For the recipees, I have added some choices 
on the wiki, based on what I would prolly suggest today (still a long 
way to go to September).

I think the pasta cluster would be too yummy that we would end up eating 
it :P

Hi :)
I think i would favour Italo's pasta.  Does anyone remember the BBC's April 1st 
documentary on Italian 'vineyard's that supposedly grew pasta instead of 
grapes?  Germany is famous for many things but Italy wins on pasta.
Regards from
Tom :)

exactly, that's the plan. On the hackfest wiki page, and maybe if we
have a website for the hackfest, also on this (sub)site.

Very normal practise[1]. I'd mention them liberally in the beautiful
blog / write-up of the hack-fest highlighting its results
(personally) :-)

Thanks,

Michael.

Depends on what "somewhere" is suggested to be. :)

E.g. no problem mentioning them at the hackfest place or hackfest
related wiki / webpages. But I'd see a problem if "somewhere" would be
the TDF or LibreOffice homepage (but I don't think, it was meant that way).

André

Hello,

as you know, there will be a Hackfest in Munich from September 2nd to 4th.

We have the offer from a service provider that they sponsor one round of
food and beverages for all attendees, roughly about 250 €. In return,
they would like to be mentioned somewhere.

I see no problems with this, given this is an offer we make everyone, so
multiple sponsors can join, and we do not prefer one single corporation.

Any objections?

Thanks,
Florian
