[Noisebridge-discuss] autodesk software donation

[Rachel McConnell]

If someone wants to take the time to figure it out, it may be possible 
to get an educational site license for free from Autodesk for some or 
all of those.  Ace did this and now has some Autodesk software available 
for use while at the space.  It's installed on one of the machines there 
but it is also possible to use a copy installed on members/visitors' 
machines while at the location.
