MacPorts meeting 12.-16. October 2019

[Mojca Miklavec]

Dear MacPorts users & developers,

We would like to organise an extended MacPorts hacking weekend in
Trieste, Italy (or eventually Slovenia) from Saturday 12th of October
to Wednesday, the 16th of October (arrivals on Friday evening or
Saturday morning, departures on Wednesday afternoon).

We will fix the place & price for food & accommodation as soon as
possible, but we'll try to keep the costs down.

I would like to ask everyone interested in participating to reply
(either on the list or off-list), so that we have a rough estimate
about the number of participants and can plan accordingly.

We would explicitly like to invite our GSOC students to join us for
the event, I'll send separate instructions to you.

We would like to use the opportunity to wrap-up the summer experience,
to brainstorm about the future, deploy and test the missing bits and
pieces, come up with new ideas, and simply enjoy hacking together and
spending some nice evenings together. We would probably be covering
various topics (our CI infrastructure would definitely be on the
menu).

Mojca

PS: Those who confirmed attendance so far: me & Aljaž as organizers,
Umesh Singla, Clemens Lang, Jackson Isaac (just for the weekend).
