Event Timeline

Aklapper moved this task from Backlog to Proposed Sessions on the Wikimedia-Hackathon-2017 board.

(Last year's item: T130829.)
@srishakatux: Would love to pass running this session to you at some point. See my private email from 27 Jan 2017.

@Aklapper & @srishakatux:
If you will both be in Vienna maybe you can schedule this session there and then meet the evening before and go over the session/slides/strategy and then run it together at the hackathon. After that point maybe @srishakatux can take it? Does that make sense?

@Aklapper @Rfarrand looks like I will be able to take this up by the time of Vienna hackathon, very soon going to prepare for FOSSASIA using the materials Andre shared w/ me.

Qgil subscribed.

Assigning accordingly.

@srishakatux: Just checking - if there is something I can help with / discuss when it comes to preparing this session, please let me know (here; email; video chat; etc)!
