Darcs Hacking Sprint, Nov. 14th and 15th at Galois

[Igal Koshevoy]

Want to help contribute to Darcs, a cool Haskell-based revision control
system? Come on by!

Who : Anybody who wants to hack on Darcs (or Camp, Focal, SO6, etc)
Beginners especially welcome!

Why : Darcs aims to have bi-annual hacking sprints so that we can get
together on a regular basis, hold design discussions, hack up a storm
and have a lot fun.

What : We plan to put some finishing touches on Darcs-2.4. Darcs 2.4 is
a pretty exciting release because we expect it to offer nice performance
enhancements from Petr's Google

Summer of Code Project, and also a nice new 'hunk splitting' feature.

We also intend to set aside at least one Darcs hacker for mentoring
beginners, so if you're new to Haskell or to Darcs hacking, here's a
good chance to plunge in and start working on a real world project.

How: Add yourself to http://wiki.darcs.net/Sprints/2009-11

For any one attending, you'll need to have someone let you into the building.

I've added a way to call me (via google voice) to the darcs hacking sprint wiki.  The link to the wiki is in the announcement that Igal sent, and the link to call me is here:

Email me directly if you need the phone #.

I'll try to be there by 9am each day.  But, I expect most people will show up closer to 10.

Jason,

I strongly recommend posting a phone number or other instructions on the
door so folks that don't see your latest message can still get in. :)

Yes, the # is on the door.

I'm here, and looks like we're ready to go.

Thanks!

And, Day 2 of the sprint has started.

The # is still on the door.
