Actually hack on stuff
Details
We have a location: Packard Place!
aaaaaand, we'll have FREE BEER and PIZZA, provided by our sponsor, Learning Station.
You'll get some hands-on open source development. We will work with the Sunlight Lab's Real Time Congress API ( http://services.sunlightlabs.com/docs/Sunlight_Congress_API ).
Matt Johnson, a friend of the meetup, has started a project that we will seek to improve to work with government open data ( https://github.com/mhjohnson/RTC-python-library ). Clone it, get a Sunlight API key ( http://services.sunli... (http://services.sunlightlabs.com/) ), run the RTCtest.py and mess around with it.
All skill levels welcome. Come to learn, teach, and hack.
