This is a lot of what I envision the DebSpace proposal to be. A space
people can come together and work on things.
Take the educational and community aspects of this BSP, and that's
what I hope DebSpace can become.
Speaking of which - perhaps we should schedule more "hackfest" kinds
of events. Not quite so long as the BSP, but something people can
come and work/learn from each other. Any ideas how to do this well?
