Would it be possible to slap an editathon to this, so that we could have
something to train our new professors who don't have a clue about editing
but want to teach their students how to use Wikipedia?

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?
