== Questions to answer first ==
* What is the target? (i.e. Fixme members, extern people, adults, children, ...)
* What resources are required? (i.e. the hackerspace, electronics tools, electronics parts, ...)
* Who can help me to organise? (i.e. things can be done faster/easier if you do not try to do it alone)
* Is the date available ?
