Were excited to announce that this years World MoveIt! Day will be **Thursday, October 25, 2018**! The event is a day long international hackathon to improve the MoveIt! code base, documentation, and community. We hope to close as many pull requests and issues as possible and explore new areas of features and improvements building off of seven years of dedicated work. We will be having several international event locations including:

* [Tokyo Opensource Robotics Kyokai Association (TORK)](http://opensource-robotics.tokyo.jp/), Kashiwa, Japan (held on Friday, October 26!)
