Miro hackfest in Boston

Note: This is an old post in a blog with a lot of posts over a long span of time. The world has changed, technologies have changed, and I've changed. It's likely this is out of date, the code doesn't work, the ideas haven't aged well, or the ideas were terrible to begin with. Let me know if you think this is something that needs updating.

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:

  • cleaning up and improving the gtkx11 platform interface, gstreamer/xine use, ...

  • working on bitesized bugs and working on unittests

  • hacking together an interface for Elisa or MythTV

  • testing out the fledgling Mozilla embedded API with the gtkx11 interface

  • sorting out packaging issues

  • other things?

I was thinking we'd do the hackfest sometime in June. Possibly as part of FUDCon10 or in the vicinity.

If you're interested and/or have ideas, find me on IRC, email me, comment below, or send me telepathic messages of hope.
