Hack’n’ACK events are a monthly get-together by the RIOT community to hack together, review PRs together and meet other and new community members. There are physical meetings taking place at FU Berlin and HAW Hamburg (when there isn’t a pandemic). This topic serves to post the monthly reminder for this meeting with the relevant information.
2021-02-23T16:00:00Z will be our monthly Hack’n’ACK party. Due to the ongoing pandemic, there will be no face to face meetings, but feel free to join us at https://meet.jit.si/riot-hacknack.

2021-04-27T13:00:00Z will be our next Hack’n’ACK event. I will not be able to join at this time yet, but maybe someone else is already around by then, I’ll be online later if someone is still around.

I will be there with my finger hovering around all the green merge buttons!

That page doesn’t exist 
I see that the time is nicely translated to my time zone.
Wasn’t there a calendar that had these event in them? Or maybe I had done that myself. Hmm.
Oops, shouldn’t link in a public post to posts that only certain users (maintainers and moderators) can see 
. Anyway, it just gives some information how we came to the conclusion that f2f meetings and thus monthly Hack’n’ACKs may become possible again (lifted Covid restrictions in Germany, where many contributors live, etc.)
Happy to hear.
There is one, but it’s more for internal use. We can however, create something more public facing in the future.
Maybe you were referring to the calendar available for the RIOT summit last year?
In Berlin, we will meet at the Computer Science Institute of FU Berlin in Dahlem, Takustraße 9, 14195 Berlin. The room will be the same we used to meet at: 137, first floor, right across the staircase you will use when you come through the main entrance.

Still not 100% sure, but tentatively I’d say that it will be room 137 in the Computer Science Institute of FU Berlin (Takustr. 9) again.
For the people in Hamburg
You can join us at HAW Hamburg, Berliner Tor 7, 20099. Room R4.60.

Due to the quirks of the IT provided in the room we usually meet at at FU Berlin, WebEx would actually be a better option (the screen we used for the past 2 hack’n’acks is actually a Cisco WebEx device with integrated Camera and Mic (and 1Gbit/s Ethernet!) and all, but the latter can only be used with WebEx…). I know its not open source, but anyone be against to at least trying WebEx for the next Hack’n’ACK session instead of Jitsi? Would make things a lot easier at FUB.
Since some unicast invitations with the Jitsi link were already sent out, we decided that at least for the coming Hack’n’ACK, we will stick to Jitsi.
We are online at FU Berlin. You can join me in room T9.137
