Do we want to organize something at Barcamp?



That sounds interesting. I just registered for it,and it would be nice
to have a BLU presence there, along with some volunteers to make
our presence known.

I'll add it to the BLU calendar.  It takes place Saturday and Sunday,
April 25-26 at MIT's Stata Center on Vassar Street.

Of course, it would be nice if our presence there were more than just
a table and a couple volunteers to say "Hi! We exist!".

At our Linux Expo booth in 2006, we had a volunteer showing off a robotics
project.  If we can find a couple interesting projects to demo at BarCamp,
that would be great.

Who's working on something interesting they'd like to demonstrate at BarCamp?
