It's time for another hackfest! This time around, we're able to expand
the hacking to automated (autopkg and autopilot) and manual tests.
There's something for everyone to help and contribute. You don't need to
know code, or be a programmer to help write tests. All you need is your
testing mindset and your keyboard. Of course, if you are a developer
there's some great opportunities to contribute autopkg and autopilot
tests as well, with folks around ready to help.

So what is this hackfest? "A hackfest is a gathering of interested
contributors with the goal of contributing new testcases as well as
fixing and enhancing existing testcases." In other words, it's a virtual
party on IRC to help write new tests!

The hackfest will occur Tuesday, March 19th, from 1200 UTC to 2300 UTC.
To participate, see the pages below and show up on #ubuntu-quality on
IRC. We picked a 12 hour window to help accommodate the different
timezones and schedules -- pick a good time for you!

Please take a look at the following pages for more information (a
special thanks to Javier and others for helping set these up, great job!):

Thanks everyone, and I hope to see you there!
