FreedomBox Hackfest in NYC on Presidents' Day Weekend

We're having a hackfest and you should join us!

It's in New York on February 18th, 19th and 20th. There are a lot of places we might make progress. Some easy ideas:

streamline the install process

improve documentation

turn the box into a wireless router

setup monkeysphere for proxies/VPN/tunnels

finalize the privoxy settings

work on building a central communications system around tor hidden services

This will be fun for people of all skills and experience. A day of pizza, beer and throwing bits against the box will make for great progress.

If you would like to help (or even if you just want to come by to say hi), please email join@freedomboxfoundation.org. If you have ideas for discrete tasks that might be tackled with a couple days of cooperation, please do join us.
