I live in Somerville, MA, USA and I'd like to organize a Miro hackfest in or near Boston.  Possible topics for that hackfest include:
<ul>
<li>cleaning up and improving the gtkx11 platform interface, gstreamer/xine use, ...</li>
<li>working on bitesized bugs and working on unittests</li>
<li>hacking together an interface for <a href="http://elisa.fluendo.com/">Elisa</a> or <a href="http://www.mythtv.org/">MythTV</a></li>
<li>testing out the <a href="http://www.0xdeadbeef.com/weblog/?p=359">fledgling Mozilla embedded API</a> with the gtkx11 interface</li>
<li>sorting out packaging issues</li>
<li>other things?</li>
</ul>
I was thinking we'd do the hackfest sometime in June.  Possibly as part of <a href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon/FUDConF10">FUDCon10</a> or in the vicinity.
