In agreement but judging from less discourse on this topic herein, seems
like most folk are not coders here... mains systems and network admins...

This means, if we are to push for this, we ought to also expand the base
and/or perhaps explain further to those on this list who would be
interested on what hackathons are all about.

Btw, there is a good audiance out of Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, Namibia and
South Africa who would be instereted in this but i doult they subscribe to
this list.
