[NCLUG] ANN: NCLUG Hacking Society, July 29, 2003

[Simon Branton-Housley]

I just recently moved to Colorado, and this will be my first meeting. So
what kind of project to people bring to the meeting? How many people, on
average, show up?

Dinner: Chinese place by Safeway, 7pm 
Meeting: tummy.com space at Re/Max, 4703 Boardwalk (by Sam's), 8pm 

This Tuesday from 8pm to 11pm we will be having another installment of
the 
Hacking Society. At 7pm we'll be gathering at a restaurant for dinner, 
then heading over to the normal place at 8pm for the main event. 

We will be meeting for dinner at 7pm at this new chinese place by
Safeway 
on Harmony. This is about a mile north of where Hacking Society is held,
just east of the Safeway in that strip-mall. 

The goal of the Hacking Society is to foster geek community-building 
through the shared experience of hacking. Of course, by "hacking", 
I mean the more historic meaning of working on interesting projects 
(Jargon File "hack" entry, sense 6). Not the "script kiddies trying to 
compromise boxes" meaning which has become what most people think of in 
relation to the term. 

It's meant to be a sacred place full of positive hacking energy, if you 
will. Hacking by osmosis... 

Hacking Society is primarily meant for you to come and work on your own 
projects, as opposed to soliciting others to solve your problems (which
is 
usually more what goes on at an Install Fest or at the main NCLUG 
meetings). 

More information on Hacking Society, including some ideas for projects
to 
work on there, can be found at:
