Time Travel Protocol

  1. You can operate solo or assemble a team of up to 4 members. Teams can change composition at any time before the hackathon begins.
  2. Required tech: Your project must integrate with or extend OpenMetadata. The more deeply you leverage its features like APIs, connectors, lineage, governance, and observability, the stronger your submission will score.
  3. For GitHub contributions: you must get an issue assigned to you before starting work. To get assigned, comment on the issue and tag the maintainer (the person who opened the issue) to request assignment.
  4. You can use starter templates, boilerplates, and pre-existing codebases to kickstart your project. However, simply submitting an existing project with minimal modifications is not permitted. Your original work built on top of these foundations will be evaluated.
  5. You may use templates, third-party tools, frameworks, open-source libraries, public APIs, and publicly available assets (e.g., Creative Commons images, fonts, or music). Your original work built on top of these resources will be judged.
  6. Teams can plan and discuss strategy in advance, but coding and design work should commence only after the hackathon begins. Written notes, sketches, and diagrams are permitted before kickoff.
  7. Projects must involve building software. Hardware components are optional but not required.
  8. Teams may consist of 1–4 members.
  9. Career opportunities (interviews at Collate) don't guarantee a position, but they provide a genuine chance to showcase your skills and access potential roles.
  10. Any intellectual property developed during the hackathon belongs to the team that created it. Teams are encouraged to agree internally on IP ownership, though this is not mandatory.
  11. Treat all participants with respect. Act professionally and kindly. Harassment, discrimination, or exclusionary behavior of any kind will result in immediate disqualification. If you witness concerning behavior, notify organizers immediately.
  12. Failure to follow these rules or the Code of Conduct may result in disqualification from the hackathon.
