Just curious - is there some way to do a remote connection?  we have a few people here in Austin and one in Colorado at the Dachis Group that may want to participate.

+1 this.

I'll see what we can do for that. Not sure if the room I reserved is
hooked up for teleconferences.

Just an offer: if anyone wants to fly me to LA (or Austin or Colorado) I'll
collaborate with anyone, Paul Erdos style.

Glad to see lots of interest for this. It'll be great to have a lot of devs
with a lot of points of view.

Hey Dmitriy,

Can you count me in for the event?  I'm interested in helping out, or being a fly on the wall.  I'm currently a novice user though.

Thanks,
Ben

Ben,

A big part of such events is helping novices get more comfortable with pig,
and hopefully helping them on the road to being a productive part of the
community.

Dmitry,

If you still happen to have space, I would like to attend the Hackday.

Thanks, Devi

Subject: Apache Pig hackday @ Twitter (SF)

Hi folks,
The Analytics Infra team at Twitter will be hosting a Pig hackday on May 11.

On the agenda:
- get newcomers set up with the apache ticket process
- review and commit a bunch of stuff that's not been getting love
- hack on exciting new features
- fix boring old problems
- the "Dmitriy critiques everyone's APIs" hour
- the "Jonathan and Julien make fun of Dmitriy for being a hater" hour
- whatever else y'all want to do.

Conveniently, the Twitter office is across the street from Yerba Buena
Gardens in the middle of SF downtown, a 15 minute walk from Cal Train
and Bart.
After hacking, we can do bowling or something. Or drinking.

Unfortunately we have very limited space, so let me know early if you
would like to come and hack!

Looking forward to hacking some Pig.

-Dmitriy

I will join.

At a minimum, regarding remote participants, we can Skype. I have a good mic, and I can setup a little external camera.

Cool - tx Russell et al.  I'm talking with the higher ups here to see if we want to make it a general pig training and hacking day - we have lunch time training things here where we go over <technology> 101, 202, etc.  Maybe we'll organize something like that for this area and hack alongside people there.  Would be great to take part somehow - perhaps also contributing to something like pig + mahout or bugs or general tickets or ide integration or something.  Anyway, so waiting to hear back on scale of involvement.

If we figure out how to do remote participants, I'd love to join as well from NY.

Thanks,
