Are most of the people interested in this located in London? If not I could possibly look into organising a Hackathon somewhere in the East Midlands (fairly central...) - Nottingham perhaps.

I don't suppose any of the people expressing interest in this thread would be interested in taking a lead in organising something?
I can definitely see the Board agreeing to support something like this - financially and otherwise as required - but far easier to do if there is a volunteer who isn't on the Board who can scope it, find times, venues and so on.

I'd appreciate such an event, there is more hacking than PHP hacking:
- javascript
- css
- templating
- bot coding
- regexen
- category hacking ?
- borging

I am not a developer, but I do get my hands dirty with Mediawiki (extensions and now "widgets"). At present, I would to extend the OpenSteetMap Widget for Mediawiki... and I would really like a chance to hang out with develeoper, Developers, DEVELOPERS!!!! But I am not a person who write large chunks of code...
