Hackfest

The 2nd day of the BOINC workshop will be a "hackfest", in which we divide into groups and get something useful done. This could be either

• design something
• write code
• get existing software to work
• write or improve documentation.

Workshop attendees: please sign up for one come with one or more hackfest topics in mind. Otherwise you will have nothing to do on the second day.
