Re: Hackathons for Saucy
To simplify scheduling for hackfests, classroom sessions, and Ubuntu open week, can we have a wiki page that lists* ALL* *ubuntu QA* activities? We have a fixed schedule for release schedule and cadence testing. The email notifications are great, but It helps to stay ahead of upcoming events and to prepare when necessary. Plus, it would be helpful to add these new schedules to the *QATeam* wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam. If this is possible?

Re: Hackathons for Saucy
Istimsak, I personally don't object to having separate wiki categories for schedules. Rather not compact too much information at once. fginther is the IRC name of a person who attended today's hackfest. :-) John On Thu, May 23, 2013 at 1:53 PM, Istimsak Abdulbasir saqman2...@gmail.com wrote: Another thing what is fginther?
