HI,
1) I'm starting to promote SCaLE 16x March 2-5th 2017.
I will be encouraging greater participation of those involved in various pro-Open Source meetings / meetups / groups.
I'd like to encourage anyone else interested to help. To help in this manner I was thinking about setting up a business card template with critical dates for SCaLE 16x. ( do we have artwork I can reference for that? )
2) This weekend is the NASA Space App Challenge and I would like us to reach out to them and encourage their participation in SCaLE 16x. https://2016.spaceappschallenge.org/
I will be suggesting to those that are helping to organize the NASA event that SCaLE would make a great event for pro open data and open source space related topics to be shared. SCaLE probably is not a great for hackathons, but it is certainly a wonderful opportunity to share information and results from pro-open source hackathons and useful to support such hackathons.
If anyone here knows of people helping to run the NASA SpaceApps challenge or will be participating in it, please help pass the word that SCaLE welcomes greater participation in our pro-open source community event.
Thank You Matti
