TikiFest is a tradition in the TikiWiki community. A TikiFest is when there is a meeting between at least 2 TikiWiki contributors that don't meet usually. This is an occasion usually for drinking adult beverages getting laptops out and coding wildly in group sessions discussing about wiki technology and culture etc. depending the mood and context. It is a great opportunity for Tiki users and Tiki power users to meet some of the developers and learn more stuff 😀
5 days: FEB27, FEB28, MAR01, MAR02, MAR03, 2009 (in conjunction with the PHP Québec conference), where Alexander 'amette' Mette is going to present The virtualized server infrastructure of the TikiWiki community.
Offices of CGCOM.
85, Saint-Paul Street West, suite 240
Montréal, Québec H2Y 3V4
The event will be organized around 4 main groups. You may join one or many groups to help out. Or you can create a new group or work on your own project.
This group is responsible to attract people to our project.
Once marketing attracted people to our project, this group is responsible for making TikiWiki easy to use for new comers.
This group is responsible for making sure version 3.0 is released on time and has the best/most features with the fewest possible bugs.
This group, also known as the DogFood group is responsible for making sure all the *.tikiwiki.org sites & tool are running smoothly and helping the community be better organized.
