September Workshop information

Despite my insistence on using GitLab for most things, it only allows for 5 people to be in a team for private projects. I am not sure what the limits are for GitHub so this will be a way to find out. If we want a private documentation area or ability to work on the website, that will be a more restricted environment and edit capability will certainly be restricted.

Regardless, this is about the September workshop.

Visit https://github.com/ottawavalleysage/workshop-20240914 for information.

As you can probably tell, it is going to be September 14, 2024 and probably at the Dymon Storage location in Kanata. If you don't know where it is, a quick web search will tell you, but it is right off the Terry Fox exit on the Queensway.

To be successful, you probably want to have the necessary parts ready. Some of this will be absolutely new for some of you and probably unaccustomed activity for the rest. The hope is that it will be interesting.

I should update the README with this...

I will be using a laptop with Fedora installed. The instructions will be similar for most Linux distributions, but I don't use Windows, so if you insist, I hope you know how to do serial connections and can write image files to cards easily. WSL or MobaXterm might be useful. MacOS should be simple enough, but you may need Brew installed. The intent is to do this really old school and assume we only have serial devices available until we get it on the network, then it will be ssh access.
