Phergie Hackathon
Who: Everyone and anyone who loves Phergie and wants to help make her better!
What: The Phergie Hackathon
Where: The #phergie channel of the Freenode IRC network
When: Saturday, June 19 from 10 AM CDT till the last person leaves
Why: We’re gearing up for a 2.0.3 release and we’re looking to knock out as many bugs as we can that currently block us from replacing the old Phergie 1.x instance currently running on Freenode with a 2.x instance.
How: Just show up in the IRC channel, pick a ticket from the laundry list, and start hacking. Feel free to post any questions you may have to the channel. If you want to hit the ground running on the day of the Hackathon, decide what ticket you’d like to work on and take a look at the developer docs and source code beforehand.
Hope to see you there!

Got a broken link there (“the laundry list”). Might I suggest the Broken Link Checker plugin for WordPress (it’s quite helpful).

@Garrett Thanks. I originally had a link to a tag for issues specific to 2.0.3, but ended up removing it because I didn’t want the tag list to get too cluttered. Went ahead and changed the link to just point to the list of all open issues. Will look into that WordPress plugin; thanks for the suggestion!
