At LGM a few years back we arranged a room to meet, but also mini hackfests popped up on the stairs too. The venue was really open though and the beanbags and plugs everywhere really helped. It would probably be a good idea to try and book a talk room at LGM for a mini-meet.

Otherwise impromptu locations can be determined and invites handed out to people on the spot via word of mouth  email & sticker. :)

Thoughts?

Is the mini-hackfest definite?  Should it say "planned" instead of "will be..." ?

In one place it says "We'll dine informally in the evenings."  And in another "An informal dinner will be held one night. TBA."  Maybe the informal group dinner should have a slightly different description?  Maybe "organized dinner"?

On the wiki page, I see "User Participation Day"?  What is that?  Is there any other way for users to participate, besides going there?  Even if I could pay my own way, my health prevents travelling.

Above comments posted to the Issue.  Still posting here, mostly because of the question about user participation (since most users don't visit gitlab).

All best,
brynn

I've drafted up a short announcement and am looking for feedback here: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/vectors/content/issues/11

Máirín is there anything else you think we should do to give Red Hat due appreciation for hosting this?

Hey everyone. Working on the sticker for the Boston hackfest.
Did we ever get confirmation on the location? The page still says,
RedHat Boston Office, but did we ever confirm? I'd like to include
the
location on the swag stickers.

It is confirmed!

Martin,
