HTTP Server Hackathon/BOFs in Miami?

[William A Rowe Jr <wr...@rowe-clan.net>]

Evaluating whether I will attend ApacheCon, the most specific reason would
be hackathon time. Or productive BoF sessions.

Who all is planning to spend some time hacking at ACNA '17? Ideas for
projects or BoF topics?

I will be present, but I expect to be very busy with meetings,
feathercasts, and so on. Between events, I will hang out at a HTTP
hackathon table and work on docs stuff that I have outstanding.

Neither can I, although I will point out all final spit and polish of my
non-recursive secure fnmatch.c replacement was completed at a past
PenguiCon (Linux/Maker/SciFi event this coming weekend in Detroit metro.)
Sort of ironic to release BSD code at a GPL-ish event, on the upside I met
RSE in person :)

I find that I've spent more time at hackathons melding concensus on
troublesome design overhauls. Jeff's loadable MPM switch happened at an
Hackathon. Several shared problems between svn and httpd within apr were
resolved at the Apache retreat Wicklow. So Hackathon is not always the most
productive space but is a good forum to sort things out. Who knew we
understood pair programming before it was invented :)

Even the very limited conversations in Seville led to good APR outcomes, so
it still works if there are 2+ committers engaged. Sounds that this is
unlikely for Miami, but looking forward to the next opportunity.

I'm not able to make it this year.

Re: HTTP Server Hackathon/BOFs in Miami?

Reiterating the question... from the absence of any answer - I'm presuming
our project is not germane to the coming ApacheCon event? As much as
I enjoy the IoT field, afraid this conference may fall out of scope for me.

I know Jim registered as 'present' and presenting, Rich is registered as
both presenting and 'responsible', and noted jfc is presenting - but with
the TCCon sub-event I'm guessing he to is too over-committed. And
less than a fistful of other interesting talks, but other than Daniel, not
contributors specifically.

If anyone else in this project is either presenting, or attending, or simply
ghosting, it would be great to know, since I have to make my travel
decisions yesterday.

I'll be at PenguiCon Detroit this coming weekend, if anyone wants to
catch up or toss me OSS-related questions with respect to the ASF
or in the wider ecosystem.

I will be there if I have time I need help/directives to "dump"
mod_cluster to httpd, but I will quite busy with my talks and the TomcatCon.
