[dorkbotpdx-blabber] AVR Dragon Workshop?

[Wm Leler]

OpenTechSpace is going to buy two AVR Dragon programmers to have out  
at the electronics lab at TechShop.  So those will be available for  
people to use (for people who don't buy one for themselves).

With a bunch of people getting these, would it be a good idea to have  
a get together to share information on how to use them (or even an  
informal class)?  You can use our space (if people are willing to come  
out to Beaver-tron!)  If anyone is willing to organize this, please  
let me know.
