This is a reminder that the Byzantium project is having a sprint this weekend. We will likely be working on the live distro. The goal is to have live development environments available before long on Saturday so that everyone can develop for Byzantium within Byzantium.
Also we are continuing the trial of the new schedule this month. We will meet as usual on Friday (8pm) and Saturday (noon), but we won’t meet on Sunday. On Friday we will meet for pizza and planning, and on Saturday we will work on the stuff we planned out on Friday night. Feel free to come in even if you have no idea what’s going on. The primary motivation for this project is to help people in an emergency, but helping people (including ourselves) learn about mesh networking and the other related technologies associated with the project is a close second.
REMEMBER: FREE PIZZA IF YOU ARE THERE BY 8pm FRIDAY 😛
