Great Idea! Coincidentally, this was discussed at the session. The notes from the session are here: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-p/meeting/19231/community-p-ubuntu-hams-2/ When the video is up, we'll get a link mailed out here, and a link to Kamal's presentation slides. I'm going to try to get this happening at the next UDS.
