I'll bring a spare pocket WAP router that I think can be set to serve as a client to bridge from a hub to a wifi network.

I don't know that I ever got a commit bit for hex-ten. (At least, ohloh.net doesn't show me as a committer) I'm curious to try git, if anyone is up for teaching it. The idea that I can just publish my efforts to my own server and let people pull whatever they want is appealing in its support for an emergent project like a hackathon. (Plus, the ability to fall back to swapping around a usb drive seems handy.) Not trying to cause repo-wars, but I think I'll need to use git actively for something before I really start to grok it. > *) Whiteboards, markers & erasers. > > Lots of whiteboards for taking notes.
