I'm setting the deadline for expressing interest in hosting the Hack-A-Way for this Friday at end of day. If anyone has interest please reach out to me right away. On Mon, Apr 14, 2025 at 8:15 AM Rogan Hamby <rogan.hamby@equinoxoli.org> wrote:
The Evergreen Project is opening submissions for hosting the 2025 Hack-A-Way. The Hack-A-Way is an important milestone in the annual calendar for the Evergreen contributor community, especially documentors and developers.
Hosting requirements:
* A clean meeting space for 15 - 30 people.
* Working space for laptops.
* A TV, projector or other display and video conferencing for using the Evergreen community videoconferencing services for scheduled events.
* Adequate bandwidth for the users
* A few snacks and forms of hydration and caffeine
* Facilitate reasonable hotel accommodations (cheaper is better but no bed bugs)
* Although not required it's become tradition for the host to supply lunches
This is a great opportunity for institutions to contribute in hosting that is smaller than the annual conference. The event will be scheduled with the host but takes place in the fourth quarter of the year, usually in late October or early November.
