Hi All,
Sorry for late reply and insufficient info about my session.
1. Meaning for contributing to open source is:
Actually, I want to teach Newbies about the *Git and Github with
hands on.*
For those who are quite familiar with opensource and want to get
started as coding contributor but don't know How.
So as all folks are saying, the candidate should have some
familiarity with opensource.
If I am conducting such session, then should I call it as "Hackfest"
(?)
2. And actually I would like to work with Giriraj in his session if time
permits so add a bit of guidance
for how to get started with opensource.
Seeking for guidance,
Thanks !!

It would appear more of a general talk/session rather than a hackfest. As
Mayur Patil had initially given a thought about it, he can prefer to submit
a talk/session on it and not a hackfest session. I am a contributor to
JBoss Security (Picketlink, Keycloak) since Jan 2014. If the slot for talk
is allocated or looks feasible, I would be happy to join him. In addition,
I have also submitted a session for my own talk.
