Hi Meg,

my students alums and faculty mentors are all active in IRC over the summer.  
I’m sure some of them would be willing to look your materials over. That said, 
there already may be a decent set of things already available in the TOS 
repositories that may save you reinventing the wheel.  I’ve let them know that 
someone from GNOME might pop into channel and point them to the materials.

we’re on free node #rit-foss
