The Worldwide Aaron Swartz Memorial Hackathons generated considerable interest and engagement, but there's more work to be done.
This is a page for coordinating this continuation, which is tentatively slated to begin Sept/Oct.
We are also using #aaronswhack on irc.oftc.net and can be reached on the list aaronswhack@numm.org
Format
I see a hackathon minimally looking something like this:
- intro & curated pitches/presentations, mostly from activist/ngo types
- some sort of update on work from other locations
- time to work, for those who can find a project, maybe with simultaneous workshops
- demos at the end, with documentation as a necessary registration step to a demo
Proposed Dates
- Set up a event webpage - July
- Recruit hacklabs (as hosts) and activists (as PMs) - August
- Get signal-boosting web coverage - September
- Run events - October
