This year, the Wikimania organizers are hoping to bring closer developers, editors, wiki-functionaries with advanced rights, and staff. See https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2024:Program/Hackathon for more information.
The Wikimania Hackathon is a working event where technical Wikimedians from around the world meet to co-work on engineering problems. We will have a dedicated hacking space for you to work in and collaborate with others on your projects.
We'll have several tables setup in the venue - in the foyer area and in the Hackathon room - to give interested people the opportunity to talk about various initiatives that the Wikimedia Foundation teams are working on. These tables will have scheduled times where people will be available during Wikimania - mostly during breaks, lunches, or other pre-determined times.
