Yes, I'd be interested in meeting up for a meetup/hackday. I'm currently an Outreach Program for Women intern for the QA automation team at Wikmedia, so I could hack on one of our QA tests, and I can show others how we are automating our tests these days. It's a pretty cool setup using Cucumber/Ruby/Selenium, and volunteers might be interested in learning the tools and helping out with one of the tests.

I've asked Adam Hyland, a Boston wikipedian who works at the swank software-house Bocoup, if they might have space we could use in their demesne that week.
You would also all be welcome at the Berkman Center - I could find a room for us all in the new Wasserstein building at Harvard -- more academic, less startup-culture. (more people hacking on annotation :-)
Either way, I'd be glad to spend those weekdays in a shared space. And other Wikimedians would be welcome to come by and spend time with us.
Warmly, SJ

Hey everyone,
Can someone confirm that this is indeed happening at Bocoup, and if so, what day(s)? I've had a couple of requests for tutorials and may try to do something to coincide with a hackday/meetup.
