Sunlight Labs is having three "Hack-a-Thons" coming up. One at Transparency Camp, one at PyCon, and Web2.0 expo. Heck, a few of us are going to SxSW this year and we may do one there, too. Please vote on these ideas and let us know what you think we should be working on at these hack-a-thons. A note: we're naturally averse to advocacy type ideas. We'll likely not do them. It isn't that we don't believe in democracy though! It is because we're a c3 organization, and are legally prohibited in certain ways from doing very much in the form of advocacy.

On looking at this bill, I could only think, no wonder Congresspeople don't read it!
