[hackerspaces] CC-licensed Maker Pedagogy (Lesson Plans, etc)?

[Matt Goodman]

Great energy in this discussion.  Here at ATX, we talked a lot about doing
outreach demos.  We were thinking of putting together a group of
hacker recipes that wold be great fodder for that sort of thing.  Anyone
else on list interested?  We have a segment of our wiki that has been
growing slowly, but it could use more contributers :)
