Adding the mesh list, as this would be a great opportunity for neighborhood outreach, and we could set up some of the hardware and promote our next BYOI (build your own internet) workshop on July 1st.

Unfortunately, Marc and I can't help to coordinate as we're out of town until the 27th, but I believe Grant said he'd be down, and maybe others would be interested?

I like the 'take stuff apart' idea, Patrik :)

SUDO never said one way or the other but it seemed like they were probably not going to participate or......

One of the ideas suggested at one of the Sudo meetings last week was to just have a table full of ewaste gear, screw drivers, pliers and hot glue, for kids to take stuff apart and put it back together again. That always used to be a very popular activity at Maker Faire. (They stopped doing that a few years ago - possibly out of liability concerns: sharp edges, lead solders, you name it...)

Was Sudo or other groups at Omni planning to have a table at the Temescal Street Fair this Sunday? This is a great opportunity to reach out to our immediate neighborhood in a very visible fashion.

CCL will be there with at least a table or two, and it sounds like BAAM may have up to five mushroomy tables as well.

We were offered free space to exhibit at the Fair, but I am not sure exactly where our tables will be - somewhere at the intersection of 48th and Telegraph - or how much total space we will have available. I believe Ken Litchfield has been our main contact person for those kinds of logistics.
