The Codeathon at GHC2010 is intended to introduce participants to rapid development of FOSS applications in a collective coding setting. We expect participants with any level of familiarity with coding and with the specific tools used in Sahana Eden, so want to provide a range of options for projects. We also want to send out material that participants can review in advance, as there will be little time for training during the codeathon. Facilitators can receive more direct training and practice in advance. * Atlanta 30th September * [http://gracehopper.org/2010/conference/open-source-track/#session6 GHC website] == Pre-Codeathon Training for Facilitators == * Python intro * Eden / Web2py intro * Facilitating at a barcamp * Simplified agile (incremental development, short cycles, partner programming,...) == Pre-Codeathon Preparation for Participants == * Python intro * Eden / Web2py intro * What to expect at a barcamp, crisiscamp, etc. * Remote participation in FOSS development == Codeathon Projects == ''(I'm not convinced that the distinction for tasks should be between Python coders and non-Python coders, but rather between people familiar with web services and not. --Pat)'' === Projects for Non-Coders === * Use testing * Reporting bugs * Entering data on live Pakistan site * Researching info for Pakistan site === Projects for Non-Python Coders === * Bug fixing * === Projects for Python Coders ===
