[Commotion-dev] mesh workshop in NYC

[hello at ninabianchi.com]

Is it possible that OTI (or someone) could host another hackathon that would focus more explicitly on these concepts we're discussing with a bit more lead time? January 11th is very soon. It might be difficult to coordinate everyone / be inclusive / reach out to critical voices on such a short notice. I would like to join a hackathon around these ideas however I wouldn't be able to make the 11th. 

Thoughts? 

Any other events already in the queue for February, March or April?

We just held a workshop in Detroit to introduce the idea of local applications, and our next focus round would be more focused on applications that leverage the capabilities of the mesh. I also think that there would be interest from the organizing teams in Red Hook and Hoboken, as they are both thinking about applications for their networks, although with different contexts.

It might be interesting to work on some of these ideas there as well. Is anyone on the list thinking about coming to that hackathon?

I'd also like to continue building kits that make this planning process open and collaborative with the communities where they would be deployed.
