Action Item Review
-
Hackfest/Hackathon readout from EU (Chris) and ongoing planning (Todd)
-
-
Held a Hackathon (competition style with prizes) and a Hackfest (working on Hyperledger codebase, help onboard new people, architectural issues, etc.) in Amsterdam this last week, hosted by ABN AMRO
-
Hackathon – 20 teams of 5-6 each. 12 “geniuses” from HLP technical community, judges including Brian/Chris. 36 hour event.
-
Applications ranging from mobile voting app, healthcare records, insurance for delayed flights, fintech,etc.
-
Use cases here
-
CF: would be useful to develop “Hackathon in a box”
-
Mic: talked about having a public test network up – would be great to have a place to showcase the best applications that come out of these
-
Hackfest – roughly 60 attended. Saw some new participants F2F (SWIFT, Accenture, CLS, Santander, etc.), as well as some more people to STL
-
December – hold a Hackfest? Should it be in New York?
-
- General consensus was that New York on December 5th & 6th in advance of Members Summit is doable. Todd to look for space and connect back up with TSC before confirming anything.
-
-
Chris Ferris to pull together thoughts on snapshot release in Hyperledger Release Taxonomy v0.4 and circulate via email
-
- VOTE: Unanimously approved
-
Finalize wiki.hyperledger.org migration plan in 10/6 TSC call
-
- Update since TSC call: plugins have been installed
- No major objections at this point, start migration early next week. Need to lock Github wiki prior to migration.
- Plan to leave the pages that Georg has migrated to Dokuwiki and continue to build from there.
- Todd to migrate TSC info, WG owners to migrate their own info.
