Due to having moved to London just that week I'd love to take part. As I'm a core contributor of libgit2, I am interested in bringing forward libgit2 at that occasion. Would that be welcome or should participants keep strictly to the core git project? Just asking as I'd like to take part but have a rather long list of topics for libgit2 on my backlog which I'd like to tackle myself. Regards Patrick
