ActivateHub Hackathon

[Eric Drechsel]

Hi Calagator and PDXRuby Folks,

We (the ActivateHub.org dev team) are having a hackathon / outreach
event this Tuesday at Backspace to focus on improving ActivateHub and
Calagator. We're planning to focus on improving Facebook integration,
and depending on turnout we may dive in to the Calagator issue queue
for some bug triage as well.

Come hack, meet, discuss roadmaps, etc.

Event details on ActivateHub [1].

Check out the code [2],
post issues to our story board [3],
or join our new discussion group [4].

Hey Eric,

I'm not going to be able to make it, since I've wound up down in Ashland for a few days. Best of luck! Ping me on IRC if you run into questions. :)

Regarding the ActivateHub Hackathon today at 3pm at Backspace <http://calagator.org/events/1250462117>....

If you're interested in ActivateHub, definitely go.

If you're interested in Calagator, I'll be there from 2 to 6pm. I'm hoping to:

* Review ActivateHub commits to see what fixes and improvements can be backported to Calagator

* Fix exceptions thrown by badly-written web crawlers as they dig through the site, since these get reported by the exception notifier

* Redesign how content is added and imported, this will be a UI/UX activity rather than coding. I'd like to improve user experience, guide the user more, enforce stronger validation by default, make it easier to reuse existing venues, make it possible to validate and create a new event and accompanying venue together, and add an interactive importer so the user can select, modify and fix the imported content before it's published.
