that's sick.

I especially laughted at this bit: "During the Hackontest event, 
visitors of OpenExpo receive the unique chance to see in real-time how 
open source software is developed"

well, I don't know how you guys do develop open source software, but 
personnally I don't go hide in a container for 24 hours with a couple of 
nerds and a list of feature requests.

looks more like preselection for the Apollo program...
