I think we're overdue for a Hackday so I'm calling one for Feb. 28th.
This self organizing phenomenon is at http://hackday.org. More details
posted as they evolve.

Hackday might need some explanation for the uninitiated. It is an all
day all night event where people bring their computing gear and their
projects to one place and get busy. Usually there is overcaffination
and music and video saturation. Sometimes there is gaming though it's
not designed as a regular gaming LAN party.

It's about:

* Hanging our with fellow tech/hobbist
* Getting to those projects that you want to work on but keep
putting off.
* Seeing what projects others are working on.
* Watching other people using their native environment and picking
up general tips and tricks.

I shouldn't have to tell this audience, but this is hacking in the
positive creative sense. 

Issues up in the air:
* Where to hold this hackday. My house is the default, but if you
have a cool location please let us know at hackday.org
* When the even starts. I'm thinking noon, but we'll agree on a
time closer to the 28th.

In the past this has been a heavily Linux slanted event, but I
wouldn't mind throwing it open to our Windows and Macintosh friends
so we can see what kind of projects they are up to. :)

Please use the hackday.org website to post your hackday plans. Let
us know that you are coming and what you are bringing to work on. It
helps get us all into the spirt of things.

Happy Hacking,

Darrell Golliher
