Hackfest in Germany (May 2019)
Hi all,
We're considering a May hackfest in Germany, organized around the LGM event in Saarbrücken. For this, we need someone in the role of event coordinator. If you're available and interested (or might potentially), please let me know.
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Hackfest2019_Saarbr%C3%BCcken
The duties of the event coordinator is to make sure we have a venue for the meeting, recruits attendees, and provides travel-related information (e.g. hotel and dining suggestions).
Thanks, Bryce
As a note, I can not attend this Hackfest, as I'll be in the States for a family holiday planned two years ago.
I will help edit video if someone else can get it though.
I will also produce Hackfest stickers as per usual.

Nice, I'll be there!

I won't have the time to fill that role ...

... however, I will help with small tasks that benefit from someone being local.

We have been thinking of doing a hackfest prior to or after LGM, however to do so we'd need to have a venue to meet at, ideally someplace in Saarbruecken (or possibly even the same place[1] as the LGM conf).
Does anyone have a place to propose? If so, we can try and nail things down at the next board meeting. We'll need a volunteer to get in contact with the venue and make the arrangements.
If we don't have a separate Hackfest venue identified by the board meeting, what we'll do instead is still sponsor attendance at LGM, but won't have a separate hackfest. Attendees can arrange to meet ad hoc for discussions as fits their schedules during the conference as they wish.

I talked to Julia from K8 (the LGM organizers) and she confirmed that there will be room for the hackfest a few days before the LGM, either at the venue itself or at our office.
For further planning I'd need to know for how many people we need space and what else – besides tables, chairs, Internet and electricity – is needed.

Thank you very much, Tobias!
I have added a couple of persons to the 'People to invite' list, but we haven't sent out invites yet.
Please, anyone interested in coming, add yourself to the list at http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Hackfest2019_Saarbr%C3%BCcken_Attend...
quickly, so we can sort out the size of the space we need.
Tobias, if we don't get much feedback in time (which is likely...), I would aim for a room (or maybe two smaller ones, so one can be for working and one for discussing/teaching) that can hold ~ 20 persons with their equipment.
Not sure for how long we should aim - maybe shorter than Kiel, because there will be LGM afterwards? I know I wouldn't be able to stay for the full time, if it's Hackfest+LGM (Hackfest + 5 days). I hope our own talks will be during the first days of LGM.

- As for the equipment:
In Kiel, we had some network switches for wired network, plus ethernet cables, lots of multiplug sockets, a whiteboard and a flip chart with corresponding pens, and a projector. For people's phones, there was wifi available.
We used the flip chart, mostly, for the discussions and planning. I don't remember if the projector has even been used...?
An electric kettle would be useful, too, if there's no other source of hot water - but I can also bring our mini kettle for that.

Hi Tobias,
Tavmjong has volunteered to lend help with some of the decision making on dates and such. We discussed the event at today's Inkscape Board meeting, the timing of this event with our planned 1.0 release is very serendipitous.
Thanks again for your work identifying a venue, and please work with Tav to nail down details.
