Hi Maren,
This looks great and I'm going to try and make plans to join this hackfest.
- That would be awesome!
One thing we forgot to do for the Boston hackfest was to budget some money for snacks and a lunch I put together. If you've got any plans to do anything like that, we should add it into the vote early enough so your expenses locally can be covered too.
- I don't expect to cook (because I won't have time for that, and because I'm not living directly in Kiel) - but yes, providing some snacks/beverages is certainly something I would like to do. The Kitz also offers catering, but I think that would be more expensive than just going to Aldi or Lidl and finding something tasty.
However, to estimate how much that would be, I need to at least roughly know how many people will join.
Currently, we'd be up to four (Eduard would like to come, but may or may not be able to).
I would like to extend the invitation to the Gimp, Scribus and Krita projects, and ask if they would like to send someone to discuss common topics with Inkscape devs (and to ask if they'd also like to represent their project in a booth at Kielux) - maybe just for the last 1 or 2 days of the hackfest (plus Kielux, after that, maybe).
Does anyone have suggestions for common topics that would be worth exploring together (so they could decide who could be interested in talking about those topics)?
Maren
Best Regards, Martin Owens

Hi Developers and Community Members,
we are currently planning to have an Inkscape hackfest in Kiel, in Northern Germany.
It was suggested it could take place this year's autumn/fall already, and I was able to reserve a conference room in a startup center close to the city's university for early September, from Sun, 2018-09-09 until Thu, 2018-09-13.
This will be during the 'Digitale Woche Kiel', a city-wide event week that aims to introduce people to IT and technology, and just before the 'Kieler Open Source und Linux Tage', a local conference with workshops, talks and an exhibition about Linux and Open Source software.
The Inkscape Board has not voted on funding of the event yet.
Details about the proposed Hackfest can be found at:

If you are interested in attending the Hackfest in Kiel in September, please add your name to the list at:
