= MORSE First "hackathon", January 2011, LAAS-CNRS, Toulouse =

== General ==

The hackathon has been held at LAAS-CNRS, Toulouse, France on the '''10 and 11 january 2011'''.

{{attachment:hackathon-morse-jan_2011s.jpg|The Hackathon team|align="middle"}}

The purpose of the meeting is to work on several new features - cf below a preliminary list of proposals.

Participants are assumed to be already familiar with MORSE ([[http://homepages.laas.fr/slemaign/openrobots/doku.php?id=morse:user:installation | installation]], creation of a simulation, etc.)

In the meantime, get in touch through the [[mailto:morse-dev-subscribe@laas.fr|morse-dev]] mailing-list!

== Hacking information ==

There is a copy of the main morse repository available on
ssh://simulation@lardenne.laas.fr//home/adegroot/hackathon/morse 

You can add it to your remote repository using

git remote add hackathon ssh://simulation@lardenne.laas.fr//home/adegroot/hackathon/morse 

After that, you can push yout branch using 

git push hackathon remote_branch_name

== Preliminary hacking program ==

Everybody can submit ideas, and can put its name under '''2 topics max'''.

Depending on the amount of participants/interest for each proposal, we will most probably select two or three of them to focus the developments on.

''Each topic links to a dedicated page where ideas/requirements may be shared before the hackathon.''
