Well, if nobody cares to start on their Novenas yet, we can wait a few 
months, apparently in a few months it'll be more usable, anyway. :-)

If someone wants to do something locally on Hardware Freedom Day, they 
can join FreeGeek Seattle and volunteer at their Saturday Workshops, in 
the South Seattle area.

FreeGeek Seattle volunteers help people refurbish PCs with Linux -- and 
currently investigating how to also upgrade firmware with CoreBoot, on 
some systems -- and teach them to use Linux.

FreeGeek is huge in Portland, but still pretty small in Seattle, it 
needs another few volunteers to really get moving. Please consider 
helping assemble hardware at FreeGeek on Hardware Freedom Day (and beyond).

In addition to volunteers who know Linux and hardware, FreeGeek Seattle 
could also could use hardware donations.
