@Daniel-Mietchen, could you please submit your project through the project form? https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd_ptZY4xgc4vZAiMmsrjspPF3gUxOfOj_iBQ5ign3f5n5bqw/viewform
This will give you details on how to tag this properly so others can discover your issue and also so that it shows up on the front end of our do-a-thon website.
This is all documented on our page for getting projects submitted and approved on the do-a-thon website, thanks: http://doathon.opencon2017.org/project
Not sure this qualifies as a "project", but I will try, though doing it in parallel to note taking and the Twitter storm is a challenge, so it may have to wait for the next break.
First thing that came up: https://twitter.com/AsuraEnkhbayar/status/929292099199098880
OK, we'd just like to keep this repo to do-a-thon projects to minimize confusion to those new to Github. Thanks.
OK, it's a break for me now, since I can't join the story circles remotely.
The learning experiences I had so far were
I just submitted the form. Here are some of my observations:
The google form is because our front end site is wraps a spreadsheet that displays the challenges and projects for the do-a-thon website for non-Github users to explore.
The tags are embedded in the instructions to include metadata that is sent to participants. I've added that to your submission now.
Many people don't use Github and it was important that we design the do-a-thon to be as inclusive as possible.
I like this idea a lot!
Especially exploiting the immediate nature of Tweets for things we found out, but wouldn't probably be documented or processed is great.
Also I saw that in the first comment you used #thingsivelearned, but on Twitter I saw #thingswelearned and #thingsIlearned.
After OpenCon we could create a Twitter Moment based on "#OpenCon AND (#TIL OR #thingsIlearned)"
Here's another one: https://twitter.com/ma_schliebs/status/929354638029217792
this weekend I learned... that when you can't connect to the wifi through an apple device, navigating to airport.us in the browser redirects you to that wifi's login page. Thanks @pennybphd - this has been invaluable!
I've just tweeted the above examples using the #OpenCon #ThingsWeLearned #TIL hashtags and asked for more learning moments to be shared.

One of the things that is hardest to document about an event but possibly most valuable to know about is the things that were learned there. Let's use this ticket to at least try to address that for OpenCon.
If a ticket like this on GitHub is not a good way for you to express what you've learned, then try using the hashtags #opencon AND #thingsIvelearned together, i.e. #opencon #thingsIvelearned on Twitter or in the collaborative notes.
