Hi fellow Drupalistars!
Our local coworking space http://theskiff.org is organising a hackday and there's a few of us Drupalistars going down to help out - hopefully with things like profiles, bookings, etc. as it would be great to be able to connect easier with other coworkers and the wider business community and of course I think Drupal is a great platform to build this sort of stuff on.
If any of you are free on a Saturday in the next couple of months and want to join our "Team Dries" ;) and can make it down to Brightoncisco then add you available dates here:

Short version
WHAT: A hack day to make some web apps to make the Skiff even more awesome
WHEN: Not decided, have your say below!
WHO: Everyone who works at or uses the Skiff is very welcome!Wiki page with more details is at:
https://github.com/skiffhack/SkiffHack/wiki
I've included some ideas for apps that I think would be useful, please add
your own!Longer version
Calling all designers, programmers ux people, frontend people, backend
people and anyone else who works at or uses the Skiff. Let's make some web
apps to make the Skiff even more awesome!
The idea is that we all get together for a day and make as much of this
happen as possible. I'm thinking a Saturday would be best but let's discuss
it and see what everyone thinks. There will be snacks, pizza, fame and
fortune!
We'll need to decide how much of this stuff we write ourselves and how much
we re-use existing stuff.Anyone who wants access to the Wiki Page please say so on the mailing list
or email me directly at . You'll need a GitHub account
but don't worry, you don't need to be technical to get that (just click
signup at the top of the wiki page). Get access now then when you have
something to add you'll be ready! Don't be shy!
So, what do you think? Are you interested? Would you come? Is a Saturday the
best day to do this sort of thing?
Regards,
Tom
I have sofa space if anyone is traveling down and needs it!

Other donations to @theskiff welcome....
As @theskiff have kindly hosted our Drupal meetups for free for the last gadzillion years, it would be great if we all donated some £s too to help cover costs for the event and when we use it - doesn't have to be much, nothing if you haven't got it but all greatly received!
See you there,
Steve

...would be great to see more Drupalers join in, will be fun & great learning, and hopefully we can make it so can be used by other coworking spaces and those who want to start one up!
Thanks,
Steve
