[hackerspaces] Synchronous Hackathon for December

[Eric Stein]

Not totally done (more fields to fill out, making the "status" part have
a useful phrase depending on what's going on), but it's up and running!

http://space.pumpingstationone.org:8000/spaceapi/ps1

For those of you playing from home, this is implemented in my lidless
video stream analysis software
(https://github.com/eastein/lidless/issues/31) and the config is posted
on our wiki: http://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Spacemon

Oh this is fun.

Eric

P.S. Dear Koen, don't put this in the directory yet, I'm not done.
