On the third day of the conference, starting at 9.30am, we will be running a Hackathon. The goal of the hackathon is to take the collaborative coding happening globally on the internet into a room of - with a bit of luck - coders already having collaborated online.

Aimed at primarily Erlang open source coders, a good grasp of writing Erlang to produce working code is required. The hackathon won't be a tutorial on Erlang but the chance to hack on anything you want while sharing it and socializing with people you usually only meet annually.

Ideally you will sit down and work on a project/task you had discussed virtually with one of the participants or initiate other developers to  contribute to a project by tutoring them. This will also allow you to discuss the project and get feedback.

Attendees should bring a laptop with them that has Erlang up and running.
