   Fellow Makers-

   On Saturday, February 22 we will hold the first ever Davis Makerspace
   Code-A-Rama. What's a code-a-rama you ask? Well, it's a lot like a
   hack-a-thon, but with less synergistic leveraging of monetization assets.
   Also, we are going meet in the morning, because some of us have to go to
   sleep at a reasonable hour and can't stay up all night chugging Red Bull
   and eating pizza. 

   Basically there are several software projects which need some work and
   would be really useful to the space. Here are a few that have been
   discussed recently:

   * Interface for resin based 3D printer
   * Inventory system for equipment/tools
   * Provisioning system for computers
   * Web-based member registration form

   We will decide as a group what project(s) to work on based on who shows
   up.

   Don't feel that you need to have a particular skill set in order to
   participate. This is a Makerspace event and knowledge sharing is one of
   our primary goals. If you would like to help and possibly learn a new
   language, or library, or framework come on by. We aren't looking for
   experts and won't turn someone away because they lack a particular skill.

   So, if you want to help us hack on some software for the greater good,
   come by the space on the 22nd. I plan on getting there around 10:00 AM.
   We'll discuss the various projects, do some brainstorming, and then break
   into groups and code until people get tired or decide they have better
   things to do.

   See you there.
   -Jordan
