PTA/JHB Hackathon?

[Toitjie]

Howzit,

I am looking for any hackathons in the area mentioned above, any of you know of these kinds of events or perhaps where to find them?

Basically, just looking to meet up with a bunch of people (developers, designers, etc), do some crazy brainstorming and then form groups and make some of these apps come to life.

Meetup.com ...or is it meetup.co.za? Either way, I see there are lots of events organized for developers on there.

+1 for meetups. Just choose carefully. Some of the ones I've attended are just dead boring.

Perhaps we could do a MyBB hackathon.

If the groups are too small then we can have a JHB vs CPT vs DBN hackathon, perhaps a hoodie or two from RPM and the team?

Even though its called a hackathon, doesn't really mean hacking something.

Sounds like a great idea!

Surely people around here can organise some nice sponsors and venues for us to use?
