What's a sprint? How do I participate?

See Sprints for information about how sprints work, how you can participate, etc.

Anybody, anywhere around the world, can participate and contribute. We'll be gathering in person in Carrboro Creative Coworking, but if you can't make it you can also help out in IRC.

If you plan to participate on-site, please RSVP via Eventbrite so we get an idea of how much food to plan for.

Getting there

Carrboro Creative Coworking (CCC) is located in downtown Carrboro and is within walking distance of many restaurants, bars, and shops. The address is:

After turning on Lloyd St, CCC will be on your left just past Rice's Glass. The sign reads "The Lloyd Street Office Center." You can park in the lot immediately in front of the building or, if space is limited, there's additional parking beside the building (just turn into the main parking lot and continue straight to the gravel parking area).

Last week was Carrboro Creative Coworking's first birthday. We opened our doors in early October 2008.

So much has changed. I've learned SO much. I have a beautiful son. The community has grown. So many smart and friendly people work here now. Its an amazing environment that is bursting with energy.

Unfortunately the anniversary came and went without much fanfare. Fact is I'm so busy that planning a party or other celebration was just too much. But sometime soon I'll organize something special. I want it to be fun and different. So stay tuned!
