In addition to working on the regular SIPB projects, SIPB has in the past had hackathons dedicated to squashing Debian release bugs, as well as Documentathons dedicated to writing documentation for a variety of SIPB services. +We hold a hackathon about one Saturday or Sunday a month in the SIPB +office. A hackathon is a great opportunity to get involved in a +project or get people involved in your own. A recent hackathon, [[Hackasaurus Rex|hackathons/HackasaurusRex]], drew over 50 people to the office and spawned several exciting new projects. In the past, we have had hackathons such as our [Bug Squashathon](http://sipb-www.scripts.mit.edu/doc/wiki/LennyBugs), which was dedicated to +squashing release-critical bugs in Debian. Sometimes we run also run +[[Documentathons|doc]]. +In general most hackathons are open to any project, and absolutely everyone is welcome to attend. If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at sipb@mit.edu. If you are a member or prospective interested in running a hackathon, you should read some [[wisdom|runninghackathons]] we have collected.
