[OPEN-ILS-DOCUMENTATION] DIG Hack-a-way date: September 12

[Kathy Lussier]

Hi all,

The next DIG hack-a-way will be held September 12. During the 
hack-a-way, we will be focusing on documentation for new 2.7 features 
with the goal of having this documentation complete before the 2.7 
general release.

We have set up a wiki page identifying all new 2.7 functionality at 
http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-docs:2.7_needs. 
Please add your name to the wiki for features you are willing to 
document. Yamil has also identified a couple of features that he is 
willing to work on with any new DIG members.

The DIG hack-a-way is an event where people can work together remotely 
via Google Hangout. However, we also encourage sites to volunteer to 
serve as hosts for geographic clusters that meet in person.

Traditionally, since there are so many New England-area members of DIG, 
we have had one geographic cluster that meets at Berklee College of 
Music in Boston. However, when I was looking at the Doodle poll to see 
who might be participating in our geographic meet-up, I noticed that a 
drive to Worcester, where C/W MARS is located, might be more convenient 
for the Connecticut and New Hampshire folks. If they are taking public 
transportation, Boston would be more convenient.

After speaking to Yamil, we decided to throw the question out to the New 
England areas DIGgers to see what preference you have for a meeting 
location. Just send us an e-mail, and we'll select a location based on 
what works best for people.

If anyone else is interested in hosting a geographic cluster for this 
year's hack-a-way, feel free to send out an e-mail to the list.

Feel free to let us know if you have any questions!

Kathy
