2 day event sometime in April at Fixme, focused on exploring and playing with the Raspberry Pi. The idea is to organise a big RPi event with lots of talks, workshops, and projects for everyone, especially the public.
The events will be held in two places, the goal is to hold two talks/workshops at the same time. It still needs to be decided where these two places will be. Carmelo has given approval to accommodate 50-100 people.

Participants
Rough interest expressed for participation during weekend:
- Francois - playing with the RPi camera, possibly streaming if he can figure it out
- Simon & Laura (fragment.in) - something with occulus rift? their friend made a turtle tweeting pi
- Max - xbmc media center set up, maybe something else
- Oscar - bring 10~20 old laptops for event that were previously used at his office
- Rorist - something
- Pierre - creating your own NXT coin/FixmeCoin
- Sasha - filling in parts that no one else is willing to do
Components
- Screens
- 2.8" Touchscreen module for RPi (17.40 $) - same as Adafruit one
- 7" Screen for RPi (21.60 $)
- 3.6" Screen for RPi (7.65 $)
- DB18B20 sensors
- Plexiglass for laser cut cases
- SD cards
- RPi cameras
- WiFi USB adapters
- LED strips
- BUZ11 for LEDs and other peripherals
- Breadboards
- Jumper cables
Schedule
- Early march: set a date and discuss possibilities
- Mid march: start developing workshops and finding motivated people
- Mid march: start advertising the event massively
- April 18/19: event (likely date)
Resources
It would be nice to have some more RPi's that we can give to the public with a caution, as well as a wide selection of RPi sensors. We will also need to make sure to place this event in all of the calendars that univercite and hackuarium use to avoid confusion.
