CTK-Hackfest-Feb-2011
Introduction
Date: February 7-11, 2011
Location: Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA: The Franklin Hotel
Goal: A follow on to the wildly successful previous hackfests!
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: Kitware's office in North Carolina: Julien Finet, Jean-Christophe Fillion-Robin, Stephen Aylward
Future Events: 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. We welcome participation via the CTK email lists, the source code repository, and this website.
