Wikimania’s classic “Hacking Days” event is back, and better than ever
as the Wikimania Codeathon will be open throughout the entire conference
this year:
http://wikimania2009.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_Codeathon
Based on the success of April’s Developer Meet-up in Berlin, we’re
starting with an “unconference”-style planning session to let attendees
break out into common working groups.
The fun begins at 10am Tuesday, August 25 (note — this is the day before
the main conference begins). The coding room will remain open throughout
the rest of the conference, so folks can pop in and out between other
sessions.
We’ll be in Room F at the Centro Cultural, which should be nicely
spacious. Non-developers are welcome during the conference if you just
need a quiet place to sit and check on your sockpuppet accounts. ;)
There’ll be a wrap-up presentation in Room 3 at 14:00 Friday, August 28
to give folks a chance to do mini-talks on what they’ve been working on.
If you’re planning to attend, either in person or virtually via IRC,
please add yourself to the list on the wiki to help coordinate:

Hi lists,
I'll arrive Ezeiza Airport at 09:20, Mon., Aug 24 by CO051 from Houston.
Would anybody like to share Remises to the Bauen Hotel?
Since I will leave Japan 15:55 JST (06:55 UTC), Sunday, 23rd, I hope to hear
somebody join me before I'm on board, but I'll keep effort to be
online at Houston.
Best,
--Takashi OTA
Good idea. I arrive from Sao Paulo at 23:10 on Aug 21. Anyone else in
that time?
Cheers,
Sundar

Hi,
if you arrive early in Buenos Aires (Sat. 22nd or so), you may want to
join us in exploring the city. We, that is a travel group of (currently)
four Wikimedians. If you are interested, please read the following page:
http://wikimania2009.wikimedia.org/wiki/Travel_coordination#Sightseeing_in_…
You can add yourself as attendent on that page, too (don't worry, it's
not bindingly).
Of course, if you aren't interested you may want to check out the travel
coordination page anyway, as there are also other exciting travel proposals.
Yours,
Church of emacs

Hi,
I'm looking forward to meeting you all at Wikimania 2009.
Some of us have been discussing trip plans before and after the
conference.
It would be great if more people join us and make great trips. I'm particularly interested in a trip to the Ibera wetlands.
Please discuss at http://wikimania2009.wikimedia.org/wiki/Travel_coordination
Cheers,
Sundar

Hi all.
I've spoken further to the guy from the BBC and I have the following bits of
info you may find interesting:
* They're happy for generated content to be uploaded to Kaltura under a
CC-BY-SA license.
* They _may_ be able to provide an ultra-portable HD Flip camera to a few
people who'd agreed to film for us, if they haven't got their own cameras.
* They cannot pay any fees or travel costs.
Again, either get in contact with them via their web-form (link below) or
through me.
Tom
