AFAIK, no.
There simply isn't enough room available at the Moevenpick Hotel.
Note: there are now plans for 3 such Community Meetups (Portals, Wicket, 
JackRabbit) and throwing them all together in the hack-a-thon room isn't an option.
So, for now its still up to the communities to arrange something for themselves. 
But, if this works out nicely, and in good coordination and harmony with the 
ApacheCon, in the future these events might/should be brought together more 
closely I think.
But I'm not really familiar with the organizational details.
If you want to know more, ask Arje.
