[Noisebridge-discuss] 2010 Men and Women (and other) of Noisebridge Calendar

[Jeffrey Malone]

Nice!  This is a fantastic idea!

Calendars are somewhat stereotypical, but obviously extremely useful.
I think we could really get very nicely creative with this project,
and really attract some great attention to our space.  Plus, it might
even bring in a few bucks on the sales!

I'd like to volunteer.  I think we could have some really sexy shots,
and that February would be a great month -- so I want to put in my
name for it before too many people try for that month.  We should have
more than just me though, so who else?
Also, find out about any rules on that nudity part ASAP.  I think it
would enhance things, especially February!
