Chat in Slack. Once we have teams and projects figured out, we should add them here, and perhaps update the web page.

Bobble HAT (@carlisia, @ravisastryk, @osshalakhina, @nathany):

• I'd like to create an open source library similar to Gobot and EMBD, but specifically for Raspberry Pi HATs, starting with the SenseHAT (temperature, pressure, screen, joystick, etc.).
• These HATs usually have Python libraries but I'd like a library for Go.
• Maybe a Hugo website for a blog, documentation, examples, maybe a video.
• This is to push Go + Raspberry Pi for learning about computers and programming.

For coding, I only have one SenseHAT, and it may be too late to get order another one before the Gala. :-( Could still use help with design, testing, writing examples and docs.

My team of 3 will be writing gobotgo. A server for hosting and organizing bots that play go, written in go.

I'll be working on gopher-typer, a terminal game about typing.

My team of 3 is going to be working on a web-sockets enabled "gopher tanks" game... feels like a basic 2D tile-based shooter or something, but we're not quite sure of the implemntation details yet.
