i'd like to second that.

the NUX hackdays are not regular enough for my taste.
a fixed day once a month would be more predictable and allow more
planning.

we can probably use the hackerspace as a location too.

sounds good. but i'd leave it open to other projects as well.
in beijing the blug is running a "coding for fun" event since 2 years now.
every month we invite people to come and bring their own projects or
join other projects. 


likewise here people could choose to join the designated social project
or continue their own or both as they like.
