Oh ok. Yeah, that seems like a good idea. Where would this new page live?
Yes, I can help with proofing. Idea (fwiw) What about keeping kind of a Hackfest History on this page? Nothing fancy. Just say when and where, how many hackers. I like the idea of telling users which issues were worked on. Although in a different message thread, Martin didn't think it was necessary. For me, I think it could help drive donations, if users can see what kind of work was being done. It could be very simplistic description.
