Indeed this is a good test to see who is paying attention ... summer and
all.

We have enough labs already (~20 now) that I think we can reach critical
mass on this new platform. We will need to get people onto the Wordpress
site to make it look beautiful. If you want to get a login, please contact
me or Jody off list for now.

You can see what these look like as they take shape on the site.

We are also really excited about the group photos for the projects page
(see grass as an example http://osgeo.getinteractive.nl/projects/grass-gis/)
will be really great when we have group photos from each lab :)
