Get your hands dirty with Hippo, the open source Java CMS and Portal framework that everybody talks about. Join us for this free Hippo Forge Friday plugfest! We've scheduled an afternoon of free flow Hippo coding on Friday, October 30 in our offices in Amsterdam and San Francisco.
Build a CMS plugin, a portlet, a repository addon, an HST component, or something else that you think is cool enough to turn into an open source Hippo Forge project. The core Hippo developers will be there to help build the Hippo component you always dreamed of! A Google Analytics plugin, an image resizer, a Jira portlet, a Lightbox HST Component, you name it. You can sign up here.
Whether you're an experienced Hippo hacker or a complete newbie, come join us for some proper coding fun, beers and food. If you don't know where to start - we'll help you get on track :)
We'll spend half a day on pure hacking galore, a big BBQ, beers, and of course: geeky prizes! Bring your laptop and we'll take care of the rest.
