mustafaboleken Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Hi Community, As we announced before, we will have a Hackathon on 19 & 20 of November. We prepared the starter kit and wanted to share the draft with you. Let's review it together. We are waiting for your feedback about the starter kit file.

Balazs Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Hi, - The T&C for the participation linked from the PDF is not accessible (I have sent a request to see it, not sure who gets it) - The requirement of "Open Source" is new to me and is a bit vague. Do you require all submissions to come with one of the so called open source licenses as well, or do you mean that the jury wants to see the source code for the evaluation only? I am thinking about participants who might want to evolve the project into a product? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balazs Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 "If it is a web based application, the attendee needs to send us a WAR file." - I don't quite like the model where the media server functionality is mixed with the web application that uses/relies on the media server. I think it is not healthy to put web traffic on the media server and it is not convenient from a devops/deployment/security perspective either. I would consider relaxing this requirement and rephrase so that it allows those solutions where the webapp lives separately form the media server itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same question as belazs said. Please explain the "Open Source" term. Is this month name mismatch a mistake ?

As per my assumptions, uses of WAR file will help the judges to easily and in less time they can setup the participants work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustafaboleken Posted October 25, 2022 Author Share Posted October 25, 2022 Hi @Balazs and @rahul7827 As I mention in the first post, this file is a draft and other things like T&C is private and we are working on it. Thank you very much for the feedback about the wrong date. We fixed it. For the Open Source requirement item, actually, when we are adding it, we thought it was a nice-to-have feature because as Ant Media, we love and support open source but it looks like a requirement, our bad. After you finished your project, you can just send the packaged file. We don't ask for source code. Actually, if you decided to turn your project into a product and started to sell on marketplaces or other places it would be good for us too and it's a win-win scenario. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For this item, I understand your concerns but there are 2 things. First of all, we wanted to standardize formats to make the jury's job easier. The other thing is, we value developing your own web application on top of Ant Media and wanted to show that you can do anything on top of Ant Media Server and this is the real motivation for this event. We cannot change this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balazs Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Right, then at least I would concretize the version of Ant Media Server, as I saw some breaking changes recently in 2.5.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
