Hi,

good idea - the linuxhotel already asked, if we can provide some notes about
what we did / worked on during the hackfest and if we can write a short
report for their webpage with a photo.

Would be nice, if every participant adds some notes about her/his work in the
wiki and if based on these information we provide something for the qgis
community and the linuxhotel.

I started a Results section here:
http://hub.qgis.org/wiki/quantum-gis/8_QGIS_Developer_Meeting_in_Essen_2012#Results

Regards
Otto
