Hoi,
Have you been at the hacker days in Taipei?
That was a bit of a disaster -- somehow the local team scheduled two
simultaneous "hacking days" events, one with the Wikimedia core
developers and one without. :)
The Cambridge one was overproduced, with a tight schedule of dozens of
tiny talks leaving no time for, you know, hacking. Some interesting
tidbits came up but we couldn't really accomplish what we wanted.
I'll be talking w/ the program team for Buenos Aires to ensure that
things go more happily the way we like it this time -- a nice friendly
unconference-style meeting that gives people a chance to chat, come up
with ideas, and work a bit at them.
