Hey there! Apparently, trying to get into a bar, yesterday, on Mardi Gras
day is a bad idea.
But we have reservations and assurances that getting there at 6pm will
be a good idea and that we'll just waltz right in.
Those of you who are going to Goose Island, you can totally come by for one

Hey, so apparently they're closed on Mondays. But open on Tuesdays. So
let's try this again.
Leaving crowne hotel lobby at 8:40p.
Alright, so here's the plan:
Aviary is just a few short blocks from the hotel, yay!

I think that a voting process which involves working both with github, the
issue tracker, and presumably using the network map of branches seems a bit
ornate, puts a barrier to contribution up, and is likely to be confusing.
I think that if a /whatever policy is developed for how does C4L decide

I've 'audited' a bunch of classes on Coursera, just to get an idea for what
they're doing, and the CS stuff is definitely better suited for online
