[Noisebridge-discuss] Arduino based TV-B-Gone workshop (was: Re: Ready to restart Arduino Thursdays at Noisebridge)‏

[Mitch Altman]

Your the first to say they'd be into the workshop.  If there are at least a few who'd be into having a newbie workshop for learning Arduino by making a TV-B-Gone with one, I'll choose a date when you're not in Berlin.  Like, the last Thursday in October (the 28th), perhaps?
 
I'm happy for you that you get to go to Berlin.  :)
 
Cheers,
Mitch.
