openSUSE news: "What’s Hack Week? Hack Week is a chance for Novell’s developers to work on Innovation Time Off (ITO) projects, uninterrupted by normal hacking duties.

This helps provide an opportunity for Novell’s developers to work on innovative new projects they might not normally be able to work on.

Since most of the projects developed during Hack Week are open source, this also benefits the community by providing new code."
