 ===== General Details =====
-The proposal process for the Hack-A-Ways is managed by Rogan Hamby.  Previously the Hack-A-Way took proposals immediately after the conference each year.  As of the 2015 Hack-A-Way the process is changing a little in order to accommodate how the event has changed.  As of the 2016 Hack-A-Way we will take proposals the year before the Hack-A-Way to allow for more advance planning.  For 2017 the deadline will be July 31st 2016.
