#Fixit Event June 2016

Google runs internal fixit weeks. During these weeks the teams set aside all  critical deadlines, showstopper bugs, regular development -- everything -- to pull together to achieve a common goal. And, we invite the Kubernetes community to join the June 2016 fixit. 

Please take a look at anything that is [kind/flake] (https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue%20is%3Aopen%20label%3Akind%2Fflake%20) or, with our 1.4 focus on "mean time to dopamine" for our users, help [team/ux] (https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/labels/team%2Fux) or spend time triaging, de-duplicating, or closing issues that were [opened before 20160101] (https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=created%3A%3C2016-01-01%20state%3Aopen%20) or check out the [issues in our docs] (https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes.github.io/issues) repository.  All of these avenues will help Kubernetes improve the user and developer experiences with the project.

Another important piece of fixit culture is rewards.  **Everyone who contributes (as measured by engagements on Github) between 6/27 and 7/1 will receive Kubernetes stickers and all merged PRs that are contributed during the fixit will will receive a Kubernetes embroidered patch.**

#But, wait, there's more!

Since improvement isn't only about code and issues, we'd like to also help grow our community skills.  And, to that end,  below is a schedule of some interesting content and community events.
