The way I see how we organize the project, there's 4 main axis: 1- The core system yeoman/generator As this is a hackathon, I think the more interesting is the core system and the generators (could also be creating a generator from scratch). About our contributions guidelines, we have some stuff here, although it is not 100% up to date around submitting PR and issues: http://yeoman.io/contributing/ (some work could be done to bring it up to speed) Right now there's no formal guidelines about how we track and label our issues. I guess if you want to pick from our list of bugs/features, a clear organization would greatly help. Then, having an idea of what potentials participants are interested in would help too. Are they into particular frameworks? Then they could help adding new features / unit tests to existing generators. Do they want to learn about Node? Then they should help adding features / code coverage to the core system. Are they looking to learn Yeoman? Then they could create a new generator from scratch and participate in the documentation effort. Do they just want to get involve in OSS? Then there's lots of issues to tackle about the new website.

@SBoudrias thank you for the detailed break down! quick notes:
Action Items for @ahmadnassri + @pearlchen
I'll be in SFO tomorrow _June 29th_ then back in YYZ on _July 5_ |
@ahmadnassri Yes sure it'd be great to meet and sync! There's @eddiemonge in SF too. |
Just updated our contributing guide: http://yeoman.io/contributing/ I updated the first page about how to get started and the one about sending a PR. Let me know how you find it, and be sure to help us improve it! |
@SBoudrias just sent you an email, RE: meet up in SFO. |
a meetup in sf sounds good |
Added an official repo at https://github.com/yeoman/Hackathons This should have a Hackathon starter kit of sorts:
There should be a generator to create a sample site or info to paste to things like meetup |
I'll close this issue as we now have a dedicated repository. |
Hey guys,
we (@pearlchen + @ahmadnassri) are thinking of the viability of running a Yeoman Hackathon in Toronto as part of the Yeoman Toronto group, where developers can provide loving support in the form of:
The format would be something along the lines of:
I'm not sure how big the open-source community is in the city, and how many people would be interested in donating their time to open-source projects, but I am highly optimistic :)
I'm also not certain to what degree would a group hacakathon in this format would be of value to the core development? or if any at all? the idea is to help the maintainers, not create more work for them!
love to get some feedback, thoughts, and if any similar experiment was done before, any key learnings?
