[Vanhackspace] Talk on ALS Design Competition/Project

[Ryan Smith]

Hi Stephen. I think we'd like to get a good turnout for this topic. I know
I'm interested, but I can't do this Thursday. I'd like to see us push this
ahead a week or two and promote it a bit more, outside of our list, to get a
good crowd. Next Thursday is also available and I can commit to be there to
open up for 7pm.
