We're unsure about having it in SF vs. East Bay. Sudo Room would be a good option, if East Bay.
== Approximate schedule ==
(Ari would like to fix up wiki formatting on this section.)
 
* 9am: Check in, get settled.
* 9:30am - 12:30pm: 30/45-min collective workshops using versions of Matt Richardson's slide deck.
* 12:30-1:30: Lunching
* 1:30 to 5: Small group/individual guided hacking
* 5-6pm: Demo hour
* 6pm: Celebratory drinks
 
== To do ==
* Nail down a venue
* Find food and drink sponsors
* Identify teachers
* Write Matt Richardson for permission to use his slides
* Promote
 
== Teacher suggestions ==
* Asheesh
* Karen
* Ari
* Isis
* Kellan from Noisebridge Py101
* Lucas (lsblakk?) of PyLadies
* Lynn Root
* Jonathan Moore
* Liz from Noisebridge Py201
* Pamela Fox
* '''Others?'''
 
Note: none of these people have been contacted yet!
 
== Food ==
Ari would like to request lots of nonalcoholic drink options and a non-pizza approach to food. Fruit, salad, high protein, low-carb/low-dairy/vegetarian options would be key, if we're providing food. Feeding meals to crowds is hard; it might be best to just send people out for lunch but provide snacks.
