I'll make an executive decision here and we'll go with the first set of dates - May 5th and 6th - day one being a hackfest and day two presentations, lightning talks, and BOAF. Since we have more-or-less voted to extend to a full day hackfest, we'll be on our own for lunch that day. We have a student centre right across from the library, a bar right across from the other side, or we can all pitch in and order a bunch a pizza. Lunch will be supplied on day two courtesy of the university. We can handle up to 50 people, so sign-up!

If people are cool with this, I can get it all setup prior to the event. You'll be able to select a CC-license of your choice. You can sign-up for talks on the wiki - same as last year.
