Kit Packing Event - Next Weekend
|
There's a kit packing day happening on 2021-10-16 (next Saturday) at Southampton University (Building 32 (32/3077)). Plan is to start at around 10am.
|
Kit packing is when we test the kit works, clean it, triage it and pack it into RUBs to be shipped out to teams. It'll be a great chance to meet other volunteers and generally socialise. We'll probably then do something social in the evening too.
|
All volunteers welcome, although we do strongly recommend doing a COVID test before attending. There's a calendar event with all the details.

Kit Hack Day - 30th October
|
There's a kit "hack" day happening on 2021-10-30 at Southampton University (Building 32 (32/3077)). We're planning to start at around 10am.
|
Kit hacking days are a chance for us to spend a day working on all aspects of the kit, making sure it's ready for kickstart. Not only is there development, but documentation, testing, chatting, discussions, and more. It'll be a great chance to meet other volunteers and generally socialise. We'll probably then do something social in the evening too.

All volunteers welcome, although we do strongly recommend doing a COVID test before attending. There's a calendar event with all the details.
