Coding NaNo?

[elz]

So I was thinking the other day about whether it would be practical/useful to try to do something like a coding version of NaNoWriMo, where people would aim to start and finish a reasonably ambitious project in the month of November. It could be anything - a site, an app, a utility, a new CSS front-end for a site, a major feature you've been wanting to implement. Obviously coding works a bit differently from novel-writing, but it can still be rewarding to resolve to build something or learn something you might have been putting off and be able to hit your goal within a set period of time.

Would anybody else be interested in something like that?

Yes, but not in November? I'll be writing my novel. XD

Maybe January or February?

PS: Clearly the acronym for this should be NaCoWriMo.

Or Codevember! Will see how things go with what month actually works out best.

That is a fantastic idea - and yes, a non-conflicting time would be cool :)

That sounds awesome!
