Hackfest 2005, associated with the Access conference (Edmonton, Alberta, Oct. 17) needs projects! A roomful of library geeks stand ready to realize your dream application! (Or at least come as close to it as possible in a day's work). Please submit a brief description of your idea here: http://access2005.library.ualberta.ca/hackfest/ Hackfest is a "collaborative effort to solve real world library problems using freely available tools". Projects can be large or small, easy or difficult. Results are not in any way guaranteed, but are likely to range from clever-but-unfinished to surprisingly-useful to no-one-chose-this-project.
