=== Barcamp ===
A [[:fedora:FUDCon_barcamp|barcamp]] is an "unconference" -- a type of conference planned dynamically, on the day of the event. Typically, the barcamp starts with a session where anyone who wishes to speak lines up and is given a short time (15-30 seconds) to "pitch" their talk. The names of the talks are written on sheets of paper which are then taped to a wall; after the pitches, attendees checkmark the sheets to indicate which talks they most want to attend. Talks with no (or very few) checkmarks may be cancelled, or talks with few checkmarks which are on related topics may be combined. The sheets are then arranged to create the schedule for the day, with time slots as rows and rooms as columns. The conference then proceeds according to the schedule.
=== Hackfests ===
Fedora develoers developers and contributors rarely get to work face-to-face. The [[:fedora:FUDCon_hackfest|hackfest]] sessions provide an opportunity for members of the Fedora community to work together in person on code, tests, packaging, documentation, marketing, planning, and many other activities. Hackfests may take the form of consultations, or writing sessions (code or documentation), or tutorials.
