Wikimedia Hackathon

Amsterdam 2013

Wikimedia's annual development community meet-up — the Wikimedia Hackathon — will be held in  Amsterdam ,  Netherlands  in 2013 from 24-26 May. It is a long weekend filled with hacking anything related to MediaWiki  or one of the  Wikimedia  projects (and sometimes other things, too). The Hackathon is completely open; we welcome both seasoned and new developers, as well as people working on MediaWiki, tools, pywikipedia, gadgets, extensions, templates, etc.

Previous hackathon events were held all over the world, such as in Pune, India (2012),                                  San Francisco, USA (2012) ,  Mumbai, India (2011) ,  Brighton, UK (2011) ,  New Orleans, USA (2011) ,  Berlin, Germany (2011)  and  Washington DC, USA (2010).

Free registration and scholarships Registration is free of charge but we require you to sign up for proper planning. You can register for the Hackathon using this form. It's also possible to apply for a scholarship, if you register by 20 April. More information about scholarships.

Location The venue and accommodation are both at the same site: Stayokay Hostel Amsterdam Zeeburg, in Amsterdam,  Netherlands . Several rooms will be available during the day, including the main restaurant.

The venue can easily be reached by public transport:
 * NS Train to Amsterdam Muiderpoort, +- 900m walk. 2.10 E, single ticket can be bought from the vending machines or counters in the train station. If you're traveling from Schiphol and intend to take the train to the venue buy a ticket to Amsterdam Muiderpoort from Schiphol (3.90 €, train runs every 30 min direct, with change more often) rather then buy a second ticket at Amsterdam Centraal
 * GVB Tram 22 to Zeeburgerdijk +- 300m walk. 2.80 €, single ticket can be bought on board of the tram.
 * GVB Metro 51 to Muiderpoort, +- 900m walk

Accomodation Just like the location, accommodation has been secured in 6p dorms at the Stayokay Hostel Amsterdam Zeeburg, in Amsterdam,  Netherlands . The dorms tend to consist of bunk beds where each bed has it's own light and power supply. Inside each dorm there is a separate toilet and a separate shower. A sink is available in the dorm itself.
