This is a reminder to register for the 4th Haskell Hackathon.

The event will be held over 3 days, April 11-13, at
Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden.

== NEWS ==

* Lunches and at least one dinner for the Hackathon attendees will be
provided through our generous sponsors Credit Suisse and Galois.

* If you plan to start a new project on community.haskell.org, please
request an account and project in advance, so as to save valuable
Hackathon time. See http://community.haskell.org/admin/ for more
details.

== What it is ==

The plan is to hack on Haskell infrastructure, tools, libraries and
compilers. To attend please register, and get ready to hack those
lambdas!

Code to hack on:

* Hackage
* Cabal
* Porting foreign libraries
* Bug squashing
* You decide!

Before you attend, do start thinking and familiarizing yourself with 1
or 2 projects you wish to work on, to ensure no wasted effort during the
Hackathon. A list of possible projects is available on the website.

self-organizing page,
