be digital badges, stickers, etc. I think it'd be a good way to show off
things that are created in the space.

Thanks for the realism Cere!
I think contests and hackathons can be fun, but so many of them are
heavily corporate. Is there anything that wouldn't be a big turnoff to
hackers?
I guess a non-profit or "for the good of humanity" deal would be cool. I
know when people work on SudoMesh there is a strong "Yeah I'm doing this
for the good of humanity" feeling.
*Porftolio Competition*
- From time to time we've gotten code bootcamp people wandering
around our hackrrspace. I would always tell them to update the wiki, find a
cool project go finish that would benefit the space.
*Feeling Good for Finishing Stuff Reward*
- For me personally, there comes a reward in finishing off a project
since it's so hard to finish one in general.
I dunno, good ideas!

I just want to a note sobering note of realism
around this fantastic
conversation. I think one of the reasons why we don’t see more project
based work at both spaces is that people are just struggling to finish
whatever project earns them money from day to day. I think we could really
get more people involved if there was some promise of personal fame or
fortune. Just because it’s “open” doesn’t mean there can’t be prize
money. So what cool contests should we consider entering?

Sudomesh seems to do pretty well though! That's an excellent example of
the kind of team projects I was suggesting. (If it were up to me, I would
have SudoMesh meet *in* Sudo Room though, rather than treating it as a
completely separate spinoff project)

Not sure I understand why you consider that a benefit,or more conducive
to team projects. And note that there are plenty of purely bioinformatics
or software-based projects that CCL could be working on as well. It's just
that nobody has taken the initiative of creating a group project around
that so far.
