I've been throwing this idea around for a while, and I want to get it out
there before I never do anything about it.

How would you SMGLers in TX like to get together some Saturday/weekend for
a bug fix party?  I'm thinking a local house or hotel or bar or business
with laptops, bean bags, drinks, and wifi and we fix bugs til we pass out*,
then wake up and do it some more.

We could potentially do this at my place or the bar by where I work (wifi
there) or even possibly a business around here some of us have done some
SMGL-based sysadmin work for.  I can probably wrangle hardware for a xen
farm or two if we want to test some hairier fixes.  And I've got a few
other local admins who don't work with the project now but could probably
be bribed into coming along and helping clear out some version bumps and
other easy stuff.

Who else is interested, and how much notice would you need to make it here?
I'm thinking early April at the latest (I wouldn't mind spending my
birthday weekend this way) but I would like to do it sooner if possible.
If it goes well we can maybe do it a few times a year.

Oh, and if any other non-TX groups want to get together the same time in
your own location, I might be willing to lay some friendly odds we can
clear more bugs than you can.  :-)


*From the bug fixing or the beer, doesn't matter to me.
