Raspberry Jam Sessions

Workshops and sessions about the Raspberry Pi for new users, experienced users, and users to be!

Nottinghack Raspberry Jam 1

Date to be decided.

Discussions here please (we'll shall shortly move them to the discussions page)

Focus on new users (everyone is new! Some have plenty of embedded Linux experience (like me!) but the devil is in the detail)

"I think we should emphasise that this is _especially_ for those who haven't yet received their Pi (i.e. most people) and that the Jam session will allow them to get their hands on one for the evening and to plan their project during this unique time: the preparations can be underway with SD card testing, trying out power supply options, choosing a basic Linux distro, USB peripherals, etc."
