Dear techie librarians,
You might have already heard the buzz: the Wikimedia Hackathon is gearing
up for an incredible event in Tallinn, Estonia
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tallinn>, from May 3rd - 5th, 2024. We're
thrilled to announce that the Registration form is now open
<https://pretix.eu/wikimedia/wmhackathon2024/>, and it includes an
optional Scholarship
application <https://pretix.eu/wikimedia/wmhackathon2024/>
<https://pretix.eu/wikimedia/wmhackathon2024/>which will run until January
5th, 2024.
Participation in this event is contingent upon registration. The
registration portal will remain accessible until we reach the venue's
capacity of* approximately 220 participants. *
The event itself is entirely free of charge, but participants must make
individual travel arrangements unless they have been awarded a scholarship.

third-party service, which may introduce additional terms. If you have
