Dear Haiku developers and users!

We'd like to invite everyone to HSA's[1] 24th BeGeistert, the largest
Haiku conference around. On the weekend of October 29th/30th developers
and users meet again in Düsseldorf's Youth Hostel[2] to code and talk
and see what's new in the Haiku world. A perfect opportunity to learn
of others' projects or present your own.
Currently we plan to have these talks and workshops on the agenda:

 * Ingo Weinhold demonstrates the state of our package management.

 * Oliver Tappe leads the way from SVN to GIT for Haiku's source
control.

 * Michael Lotz regales us with an account of the first weeks of his
   half-year Haiku contract and what's planned for the immediate future.

 * Stephan Aßmus reveals the in and out of layout management (if he
makes
   it to BeGeistert).

 * Robert Stiehler shows off his project Voptop.

 * Matt Madia reports of his work for Haiku Inc.

 * Besides these talks and workshops we'll have a "patch hour" where
   everyone tries to get as many patches from our bugtracker committed
   to the Haiku trunk as possible.

After the weekend there'll again be a week-long Code Sprint where a
bunch of Haiku developers do some marathon programming. Sitting in one
room helps tremendously when tackling tough problems together. Join
them to find out for yourself!

Registration is now possible and highly recommended to make sure you
find a place in the youth hostel.
NOTE: For technical reasons, if registered before the middle of
September and never received and replied to a confirmation mail, you'll
have to register again. Sorry about that...

For more information visit the BeGeistert website[3] or have a look at
the event calendar[4].

We hope many Haiku fans can make it to BeGeistert 024 and celebrate
with us the 10th year of Haiku development!

Your BeGeistert team
