Scope

The Hackfest showcased the newest features of TFS Release 6 and addressed testing and validation of them. In that sense, the Hackfest fostered collaboration among both new and experienced TFS users and developers, with particular emphasis on those who were new to TFS.

It took the form of tutorials followed by hands-on lab exercises in the form of challenges completed by participants, and was dedicated to code debugging, bug fixing, and feature testing within the latest TeraFlowSDN Release 6 framework.

The event spanned from Tuesday to Friday with daily sessions.

Briefing Sessions was recorded, allowing everyone to follow up at their own pace after the event.
