[FM Discuss] Community invitation to FLOSS Manuals sprint in Silicon Valley

[Andy Oram]

I came into town early for the Google sprint and told a bunch of people why I was around at various hacker events. Several people said, "We [whatever community they were part of] could use that kind of documentation" and I realized that we're bringing a lot of expertise that we should share outside of the four projects doing the sprint. How about having an event some evening where we invite anybody who wants to come and show off what FM does? One hacker told me that her organization sometimes arranges last-minute events and that people come. And if Google doesn't want to throw open its doors to any old folks, I can approach people I know at other spaces.
