It is invite only in the sense of the Hackathons, where we have limited
space. What we do there is
a) Anybody can request an invite
b) If it somebody who is totally unknown in the community asks for an
invite, we will likely put them onto a waiting list
c) People who are known and have contributed will get an invite
d) If we still have space we go through the waiting list and see
how/whether they can fit in

To answer your question: anybody who is active on these lists and wants
to attend should be able to get a space. The only possibility where we
don't have enough space is if say 20 people say they want to come
replying to the thread, I book space for 30 and then 60 people request
an invite. In practice this isn't likely though.

Does this answer your question?

Regards
Lars

+1

+1 (I think my flights lands a bit too late so someone else from my team will attend)
