When: Monday March 1 through Friday March 5, 2021
Where: IETF 110 is an online only meeting and so is the hackathon.

Participant Preparation and Prerequisites
- Choosing a Project
- Champions post and lead projects
- How and when teams meet during the week is up to them
- Details on each project and links to additional information for each project are in this wiki in the "Projects Included in Hackathon" section
- Familiarity with technology area(s) in which you plan to participate will certainly help
- It is perfectly fine, even encouraged, to work on multiple projects
- Lost & Found
- Participants looking for a team and champions wanting help on their projects are encouraged to visit the Lost & Found.
- Development Environment
- Bring a laptop on which you are comfortable developing software
- Some projects may require installing additional software or make use of VMs or containers
- Installing and becoming familiar with VirtualBox, Vagrant, Docker or something similar may be helpful
- Specific coding languages are called out by some projects (e.g. Python, Go, Java, C++), but this is heavily dependent on the project(s) you choose
- Sharing Code
- Git/GitHub is commonly used for open source projects. Familiarizing yourself with it is recommended.
- An online tutorial is available here: Git Tutorial
- IETF Hackathon GitHub Org
- If you would like to have your project/code hosted here, send your GitHub ID and the name of your project via email to hackathon-chairs@ietf.org
- Training Materials
- Network programmability based on IETF standard protocols and models is relevant to many projects. Self paced online training modules are available on Cisco DevNet. Access is free but a DevNet account is required. You can login or create an account quickly with this IETF Hackathon specific link LINK TBD
]
- Champions for each technology are encouraged to share any other things they think would be helpful in preparation for the hackathon
- Project Presentations
- All teams have the opportunity to present what they did on Friday during the closing session of the Hackathon.
- https://github.com/IETF-Hackathon/ietf110-project-presentations is for IETF hackathon teams to upload their hackathon project presentations
- You must be a member of the IETF-Hackathon GitHub org to upload a new presentation or update/replace an existing presentation
- To be added as a member, see details in the README
- DO NOT WAIT until just before hackathon project presentations start or your request may be lost in the chaos
- All teams have the opportunity to present what they did on Friday during the closing session of the Hackathon.
Network
Access to virtual IETF network
- The NOC team has been working on an experiment that allows you to join the IETF network while attending the meeting remotely. The system provides a bunch of networks, very similar to what we offer at a meeting, just at your home, school, lab, office - just "virtual via the Internet".
- The goal is not to provide "Internet Access”, you already have that. This VPN rather puts you into the IETF network as close as possible, very much as if you were sitting next to each other plugged into the same switch or connected to the same WLAN. Currently, functionality is the priority, while performance varies based on your location and network speed. The NOC team has no control of over that.
- The system is based on one of our network hubs and your client provided equipment (CPE). The CPE is currently based on the Raspberry Pi platform, but designed to accommodate others. We have tested with Cisco and Mikrotik routers.
Requirements
- As a participant your requirements are simple. You need a Raspberry Pi, you download the image to the SD flash card, plug it in, and "get connected".
- Supported PIs:
- Pi 2B (requires a wireless adapter)
- Pi 3B
- Pi 4B
- Works with client side IPv6 and IPv4 Internet connection.
- Emits WLAN "ietf-virtual" (if supported by your Pi model)!
- Multiple ietf network options
Requesting Access
- Individuals or project champions can request access from https://tickets.meeting.ietf.org/newticket
- Provide in the Description
- Request for Virtual IETF Network
- Project: <your project/team name>
- Champion: <your email address>
- The NOC will provide you with the needed image and a key needed to connect and you can review the setup steps https://tickets.meeting.ietf.org/wiki/IETF110network#Howto:
Webex sessions for teams
Champions can request a Webex account they can use to schedule meetings for their team. These are similar to the Webex accounts allocated to working group chairs to be used for virtual interim meetings. An account can be requested by a team champion at any time. Accounts will remain active and available for use until the end of March 2021. Request your account HERE. In the request form, you can use your project name where it asks for "Working Group Name".
Ongoing communication
In addition to registering for the hackathon and subscribing to the hackathon list, it is recommended to monitor both the hackathon wiki and the list as the hackathon approaches, determine which project(s) are of interest to you, and reach out to the champions of those projects to determine how best to be involved and coordinate with the rest of the team working on each project.
Champions are welcome and encouraged to list times and mechanisms for collaborating with their team in the Team Schedule. Participants can use this page to determine how and when to reach other team members.
The hackathon kickoff and the closing presentations will be available via Meetecho. The hackathon Jabber room may be used for general and project specific communication.
- Jabber room: xmpp:hackathon@jabber.ietf.org
IPR and Code Contribution Guideline
All hackathon participants are free to work on any code. The rules regarding that code are what each participant's organization and/or open source project says they are. The code itself is not an IETF Contribution. However, discussions, presentations, demos, etc., during the hackathon are IETF Contributions (similar to Contributions made in working group meetings). Thus, the usual IETF policies apply to these Contributions, including copyright, license, and IPR disclosure rules.
Projects Included in Hackathon (add your project using the template provided at end of project list)
- Note, all projects are open to everyone. However, some champions have identified their projects as being particularly good for first time IETFers and/or first time hackathoners. These projects are marked with a star, i.e. '*'. If you are championing a project that is great for newcomers, please add a '*' at the end of your project name.
