Is the time period 0930-1030 Wednesday allocated for project presentations? — Fnielsen (talk) 07:31, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! the 9:30 - 10:30 time period is the event opening where we will orient people to the hackathon, its programs, and what to expect. Then participants will have the chance to talk about newcomer friendly projects that they hope to collaborate on during an open-mic towards the end of that session.

Apis workshop[edit source]

The Wikimedia APIs workshop, planned on Thursday from 12.00 till 13.00 is linked to the User Scripts and Gadgets Workshop. Is that intentionally, or a typo? Sincerely, RonnieV (talk) 19:06, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@SSethi (WMF): You added that link. :) Quiddity (WMF) (talk) 19:20, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sessions running during the two days – can I add one?[edit source]

Templates!

Ahoi, Rachel! Very much looking forward to the hackathon. I'm sure you can help me with this question: A few people from the Technical Wishes project will be at the hackathon to interview people about templates. Can I just add this as another point in the section "Sessions running during the two days"? -- Best, Johanna Strodt (WMDE) (talk) 14:53, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Yes, not a problem for me wherever you would like to put it. I was also thinking of creating a column on the program called "Schedule sessions at your hacking table" similar to the one on the program here for Prague https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2019/Program Would something like that also be helpful for you? Rfarrand (WMF) (talk) 19:23, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Rfarrand (WMF): Yes, that would be helpful as well. I'll put our session to the currently existing section for now, and you can move it to a column in the program if you create one. -- Best, Johanna Strodt (WMDE) (talk) 11:27, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

24-hour hacking venue[edit source]

There are references to the 24-hour hacking venue but it's not specified where it is. Guessing it's in the Amaranten hotel? /André Costa (WMSE) (talk) 13:19, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, exactly. I will change all the details on the wiki (that you don't get to first!) thank you for pointing that out. Rfarrand (WMF) (talk) 16:15, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
