Hehe, the same day I asked on IRC, coincidence ? :)

Sure

Not during May or early June but second half of June and later should be
fine as long as it's decided soon enough so I can discuss/negociate it
with my boss :)

No idea if it'd be something we'd do but I CCed a few other people from
Revolution Linux who may know better :) If we do, it'd be in Quebec
(Sherbrooke).

Well, we usually use the hackfest to code all the things we didn't have
time over the last months/year so we for sure need the devel part or it
wouldn't be an hackfest. Though I'm perfectly open to getting some
"power users", that's people who've deployed LTSP and are using it
because they usually have interesting things to say and usually are
technical enough to help us code or to work on the doc.

I don't think we've been "restricting" the hackfests in the past, only
difference I see there is advertising it on ltsp-discuss instead of only
the wiki and IRC.

Thanks for starting the discussion.
