Hackathon and Dev Meetings

The aim of Xen Project Hackathons and Xen Project Developer Meetingsis to give developers the opportunity to meet face to face to discuss development, coordinate, write code and collaborate with other developers as well as allowing everyone to put names with faces. People working on documentation and other aspects of Xen Project, XAPI, Mirage OS and related projects are also welcome.

• We aim to have one Hackathon and one Developer meeting per year and aim to have these on different continents
• Hackathons are always two 2 events, that are following an conference format. They are hosted by a vendor in the Xen Project community
• Developer Meetings are 1/2 day events that are co-located with the Xen Project Developer Summit (before or after)

Planned Hackathons and Developer Meetings

• August 20th, Chicage, USA 2014 - see Developer Meeting/Aug2014
• Spring 2015, in a non-EU location
