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

  I hack on mediawiki for WMF.  Mark Holmquist,
another WMF hacker, is  going
  to be visiting Boston roughly Aug. 16 - Aug 21. 
There are other WMF folk
 scattered around here, along with lots of volunteers.  Is anyone up for a
 meetup/hackday?  Mark and I would like to play with hooking up Mozilla's  Tow
  Truck (https://towtruck.mozillalabs.com/) in
order to allow real-time
 collaboration in a wiki context. (Editing?  TeaHouse?  Talk pages?
 something like that.)  Maybe other people have their own hacking projects
 where it would be useful to be nearby and pick our brains?
