[Imc-makerspace] upcoming Arduino workshop (and Allen Hall workshops)

Wed Mar 14 03:32:34 UTC 2012

Wasn't there a sign-in list? Not to be a dork, but  it seems ideal that a
doodle be made with the available times of the arduino/tv-b-gone talented
types and sent to that list to maximize folks from the workshop being able
to attend.
