From Fedora Project Wiki

Revision as of 12:58, 16 December 2008 by Harveybetty (talk | contribs)

As announced and discussed on the f-docs-l, the Docs Team is attempting to take advantage of people's down time from work over the holidays to get some work done. We are proposing virtual hackfest days beginning December 27th to January 4th. If you would like to volunteer to lead or attend a hackfest please add your name below.

The hackfest is a time when we can gather together on IRC to work together using all the collaborative tools at our disposal. We will also supplement this with phone conferences as needed using Fedora Talk, to maximize our efficiency. If you don't know how Fedora Talk works, stop by our IRC channel and look for quaid, Sparks, ianweller, or stickster.
