Hi all, As a community we have virtually come together from all over the globe, developing now our third successful open source DPDK version with DPDK r2.0 about to release. It is astounding to comprehend the commitment and enthusiasm you have all shared to bring DPDK to this point. With growing the community of developers in mind, and strengthening the networks and virtual collaborations that have come about, I propose that we hold the first dev at DPDK Developer Hackathon this year.
Many people will be travelling to Dublin, Ireland for LinuxCon and CloudOpen October (5th-7th). I propose that we hold a hands on 2 day hackathon Thursday October 8th and Friday October 9th to coincide with this offering, in Dublin. >From a community perspective is a great opportunity to bring together the >people that make DPDK happen - the developers. >From a developer perspective it is a great opportunity to be part of the first >gathering, meet some new people, learn something new and have a lot of fun on the way. At this point the agenda is open - so if you see merit in this proposal please share your interest here so that we can gauge attendance and gather ideas of what people would like the format to be. Thanks, Siobhan <siobhan.a.butler at intel.com>
