What level of involvement it's expected/wanted?

This is important because, for western Europe, 2 pm PST is 11pm in Spain, France and Germany which is pretty late.

Usually there are some (recorded) talks you can interact with via COM, but aside from that the main objective is to have fun learning the OS; there are challenges that get posted throughout the bootcamp to earn points. No hard deadlines except for when challenges get graded to update the scoreboard :]

OK thank you for making this clearer! I hope I will be able to participate :) Maybe the form of this boot camp could be put on the webpage for clarity?
