fyi
Please help making sure the gadgets & templates developers plus the
admins and other contributors to the tech avantgarde of your projects
are aware of this. In an idea world all of them would follow wikitech-l
but this is probably not the case today. Thank you!

Hi, you have probably heard about
Wikimedia Hackathon
24-26 May in Amsterdam (Netherlands)
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Amsterdam_Hackathon_2013
There are about 100 participants registered, and we have some room for
more. Registration is free but you need to sign up. There is also some
travel sponsorship budget left after a first round of approvals.
If your free software contributions and your Wikimedia love is more
valuable than the money you have in the bank, you can just register and
apply for scholarship. Please include public URLs where we can see your
open source licensed contributions (code, pixels, wise words...). A CV
alone won't cut it, no matter how many avatars appear to endorse your
skills.
Hurry up! The organizers are reviewing applications as they come.
