-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [atlas] Short and immediate report from the RIPE Atlas hackathon Date: Sun, 29 Mar 2015 23:49:12 +0200 From: Vesna Manojlovic <BECHA@ripe.net> To: RIPE Atlas People <ripe-atlas@ripe.net>
We had the first RIPE Atlas hackathon!
Three days of intensive coding, cooperating, learning, connecting and having fun (& surviving massive power outage on Friday in Amsterdam) - - and the results have bee impressive!
Ten final projects have been presented, and four have been chosen as worthy of the awards:
1. Disco: Combining the visalization of disconnection-events with localized Twitter feed & live weather data
2. Spatial Bucketing of RIPE Atlas Probes on Map Projections (aka Picketty ‹ making the global probe selection more equal)
3. Traceroute stability check & BGP+traceroute (two projects sharing the 3rd place)
We had 24 participants & 1 no-show, 6 jury members and 11 support staff (coincidentally: 42!)
On behalf of the community, we are grateful to Comcast for sponsoring prizes and travel expenses, hackerspace Technologia Incognita for the inspiring location on Friday, and to RIPE NCC for the office facilities during the weekend, staff support, food & drinks & amazing data & tools & platform of RIPE Atlas.
On behalf of the organizers (RIPE NCC & Comcast), we are grateful to everyone who took part & contributed, as well as to their family & employers, who let them get away for the weekend of combined work&fun.
Longer and more detailed report will follow, once we all get some sleep & collect our notes from tweets, IRC, mailing list & pieces of papers.
Cheers, Vesna
