Wikimedia Hackathon 2020/Remote Hackathon

= Remote Wikimedia Hackathon 2020: Framework = MAY 9 - 11, 2020, Fully remote!

This is not a Wikimedia Foundation run event, this event is run for and by individual contributors. :)

Overview
Please use this page to express interest and ideas for a remote hackathon to take place on the same dates that the Wikimedia Hackathon 2020 in Albania would have happened.

All projects, people, and ideas are welcome and this event will be created for and by the participants. Feel free to edit and add to this page however you like.

For now we are gaging interest with original hackathon participants and will announce more broadly if there is interest.

NOTE: if you need any help organizing something, setting up a video call, using Phabricator, or any questions please contact rfarrand@wikimedia.org

Communication
Our main communication channels will be #wmhack on IRC and the Wikimedia Hackathon telegram channel.


 * Join IRC: This is the main communication channel that our developer community uses. Install an IRC client or use IRC in your browser: Go to channel #wmhack connect on https://webchat.freenode.net, add a Nickname (ex: "yourname"), click the check box to prove you're not a robot, click "Connect" and you are in our channel!
 * Join our Telegram Group Chat: To enhance the social experience among participants, we have created a Telegram Group Chat "Wikimedia Hackathon" @wmhack. Anyone can join via this link: https://t.me/wmhack

All projects can be tracked on Phabricator as usual.

Event Schedule
If you would like to schedule a chat about a specific project or topic or a video call at any time please use this location to schedule.

You can schedule trainings, meetings, general sessions, social meet-ups, meal-times, etc. If you schedule it please plan to lead it!
