[Mesh] hackathon

[Max B]

I'm going to be at the hackathon Sunday evening and Monday. I'll bring goodies, etc. I can also be on the rolling on-boarding team. I was hoping to have the docker thing set up, but looks unlikely now. Depending on the numbers we get I may just end up working on that on Monday.
