I could probably do this. It's decent timing in the release cycle.
It's before the UI freeze, but I think we could still make a good
dent in things. Especially if the hackers implementing new features
are there for us to talk to.

Anybody else interested? Let me know so I can put together a funding
proposal.

Florian, how long would this be? Looks like the conference is just
two days. Can we have a longer hackfest than that?
