    good to see the new documentation about Hackathons!

    Would you like to publish a short summary on RIPE Labs?

Thanks. I would be happy to put together a summary on RIPE Labs. I will contact you directly to work out the details.

    We have published results of our own hackathon / deployathon last week:
    https://labs.ripe.net/Members/becha/report-from-ripe-atlas-software-probes-deployathon

    I hope you find it interesting -- it was very different from our
    previous events, both for being online-only and for focusing on adding
    only one SW to multiple HW platforms, some existing & some new...

Great post. Thanks for sharing. It is really helpful to hear both what worked well and what did not in order to help improve future events. That said, congrats on the great accomplishments of the breadth of participation.

Cheers,
Charles

    We have used SpatialChat too, in addition to Zoom - for exactly those
    reasons: it's more informal, and sparks creativity through being able to
    be more "silly" and less serious...

    And because there are multiple "rooms" available, just like in the real
    hackathon. So people could gather based on preferences: languages,
    projects, spaces to relax...

    Multiple :)

    1. Joining forces with other communities, and "piggbacking" with the
    existing events where there is an overlap of participants:

    CCC:
    https://events.ccc.de/2020/09/04/rc3-remote-chaos-experience/

    (I've already particpating "remotely" last year:
    https://labs.ripe.net/Members/becha/reporting-back-from-36c3-resource-exhaustion
    )


    FOSDEM:
    https://fosdem.org/2021/schedule/

    2. Organising an event focused MOSTLY on documentation!
    Improving existing , writing new one, converting it to other formats...

    3. Having an "Open House for Open Source" !
    https://www.ripe.net/participate/meetings/open-house

    4. Planning the next RIPE NCC together? Your topics, our orga skills,
    and facilitation / herding the cats together :)
