[Noisebridge-discuss] Interested in a PyCon Unconference Event?

[Glen Jarvis]

Errata: I'm not actually a noisebridge member. I obviously felt like one
when I started the paragraph below in my email below. However, although I
got two sponsors, I never got announced as a potential new member for
whatever reason. It could be my confusion. When I tried to attend that
meeting that I thought I was supposed to be announced, I was given a very
confusing Ghost Buster reference (Vlad or something) and thought the meeting
was called off so I went home..

REGARDLESS, I'll correct the following to say "As a Noisebridge Person who
loves hacking.. reads almost every mail on the mailing list..etc I've
noticed that we get more respect by 'doing' than just..."

Still.. it's fun.. let's hack, discuss and learn :)
