I am about to book my flight to Copenhagen but I have to decide when
to come back
so I was wondering what's going on with the Hackathon?

Is it going to take place?
Who is attending?
What is being planned for?

Is there still place to join?

Maybe you should add the hackathon to the YAPC::Europe 2008 wiki:

Interrest for a QA-Tool hackathon after YAPC::EU

2008-05-06 Thread nadim khemir
In Oslo I proposed to organize a hackathon the week after YAPC::EU.

Subject:
-QA

- tool: IDE, editors, _debugger_, CPAN::Mini::xxx
(I believe most toolchain ppl are on the QA list)

- your_idea_here

I'd like to make it possible to have this one "on a shoestring" for those who 
have better ways to spend their money (like better hardware). What costs is 
transport, hotel and food. If things are as I plan:

Transport:
- the crossing to Sweden (train) is 30 Euros return, transport to Simrishamn 
is another 20 euros return (bus)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simrishamn

Hotel:
- I have some room in my summer house. 10-15 uncomplicated people can live 
there for a few days (There are two toilets and one shower).

- for the rich and fortunate, hotel rooms are available 300m from the house 
but Simrishamn is crowded with tourist in that season so early booking is 
good.

-a camping 2 KM away but we can put tents in the garden or better yet rent a 
big tent (6 * 4)

Food:
- restaurants costs 10-15 euros for lunch and much more evening time. pizzas 
etc .. are available during evening for around 10 euros.

- cooking is the one thing I'm not too bad at. I'll cook if I get help. That 
will keep food cost low. Vegetarians will have to teach me (we could all eat 
vegetarian once just "to share") (there's a dishwasher so don't be 
frightened). If no cooking is involved, I can at least make pancakes.

- since this is a private place, There are no "working hours"; hacking can go 
round the clock and is expected to.

Other:
- there will be a projector
- no internet (right now) but I'll fix a gsm-modem that would limit the 
bandwidth but still usable (up to  200 KB/s) and everyone is carying a 
CPAN::Mini right?
- web site, etc: a volontary please
- what else do we need?

Getting some money for the hackathon:
-Sponsering is wished for. I'd like you to help me with this.
The money could be used to pay transportation, buy beds and rent the mega tent 
or other activities.

Dates:
Saturday: Transportation from Danemark and free time in Sweden. I can 
find 
room for 4/5 persons in Lund (possibly more). It will be possible to 
directely got to simrishamn too (1 1/2 hour bus) where accomodation is 
possible.

Sunday: transportation to Simrishamn, installation, start hacking
Monday-Wednesday-Longer?: more hacking

Weather permitting, a hacking session outdoors with ocean breeze in our 
faces.

It would be great if someone could give a presentation every evening

Rapid feedback please, Nadim.
