Dear Amman GTUG Members,

we are planning a hackathon event in the coming few weeks ...

I need your input on the following :

A) would you like to have a small ( 20 people) closed hackathon one
day session in a closed space

or

B) month long ( 4 rounds) as much as possible - virtually held
hackathon

we will be doing both versions ... but i would like to get your
preferences to be able to know how do you feel we should start ?

Also, we are nearly 100 users now ... please spread the word to your
friends .. staff members .,. room mates .. who ever is a geek .. code
hacker ... software developer .. lets become 10,000 !

Regards,
Rami Al-Karmi
Founder Amman - GTUGS

One day session sounds more challenging!

Hey,

Well, I really don't mind both Ideas, I would like B to be held first so we can see how stuff goes online before we come to the event. But if you do A first I think we could get people interested in the closed event, so I really don't have an interesting choice to offer you, but you can count me in. 

I have friends that will be interested in comming to this event, If I can help please don't hesitate.

Thanks for the effort you are putting, wish you good luck.

I guess taking this discussion out of the mailling list to the groups website is much more better idea !

I think B is a more accessible option for all.. as a start. I wouldnt
mind the real thing either later on.

السلام عليكم
ارجو انشاء جروب او صفحة على الفيس بوك لكي نقوم باجراء نقاشاتنا فيها
فهي افضل من تبادل الرسائل داخل ال انبوكس
تقبلو تحياتي
