Cool. I'm at civic center BART now so I'll probably arrive around noon too.
I don't have much of an agenda--just interested in learning more about how
it works / how I can contribute.

I'm gonna promise to be there at noon and
we'll go from there. What we get
up to will depend a little bit on who is there and what people want.
Personally, I am a developer, so I will probably orient towards something
developer-ish. That being said, I'm always happy to answer any questions
and I know enough about the entirety of the project that I can probably
answer most of them. Also I can do a more brief overview of things/update
for anyone who is interested. I do not have any particular curriculum at
the moment though, so I'm not going to be teaching a class or something
like that.
