[Discuss] GNOME Summit on Sunday



The Boston Summit is a yearly conference at which contributors of the Free and
Open Source GNOME project meet to discuss latest developments and hack

The events include:

 * Sunday, October 7, 10am-12pm Learn how to develop for GNOME in C
 * Sunday, October 7, 3-6pm Fix-your-first-bug mini-hackfest
