Hi,

While I will inform everyone what they need, I'm sure quite a lot
people will show up without a fresh checkout of the various
repositories. So if I can get a number of dummy accounts (to be
deleted after the event) that would be great!
hackathon1..hackathon9, or do you need more?
BTW, will all users on this machine share one svn working copy or is
everyone supposed to to his/her own checkout? Or is this one of the things
someone should organise?
There may be a local mirror to minimize bandwidth (if someone arranges
this to happen), but every uses should have their own working copy,
because otherwise versioning systems don't work too well: you would be
committing someone else's changes, for which you don't know a good log
entry, and the logs no longer show the correct user names.
I think that, for hacking there's no need for users on a remote machine,
if the hackers has a computer, they can develop locally, has a repo
locally. Or if you can offer computers locally, you can install an
environment for them (or maybe you would like to take out these installs
with this server?).
If there will be new projects starting there, then it would be nice to
share them with a server for other people, to get it after the conference,
and join. But it needs an SVN server, at least, and an easy to setup plain
project site skeleton. I think it would be nice, if somebody can prepare
these tools for both Hackathon, and for other people as well.
Bye,
