Goal: A follow on to the wildly successful March 2010 pre-hackfest.

Requirements: attendees must be willing to spend their time with the details of dicom, git, cmake, c++, Qt, vtk, itk, openinventor, and related technologies. People who do not feel qualified for this are politely not invited :)

Group size: maximum 20 participants so we can have a manageable working meeting. The organizing committee will invite and select participants based on input from TheTeam.

Organizers: Ivo Wolf, Steve Pieper, Stephen Aylward

Site Hosts: Kevin Cleary and Patrick Cheng

Future Events: The organizing committee invited a group of developers to get the CTK project started and we've believe we've reached capacity for this event. Future hackfests will be announced in advance and we hope lots of people will be interested in participating. The venue and activities at future hackfests will be determined based on the number of active participants in the project.

Developers should bring a laptop with the current CTK source code downloaded and built.
