Unfortunately I didn't hear back in time to put that on the list for
this hackathon. If the event organizer communicates with us, we
might be able to add that if you can describe exactly what you'd
like worked on.

Agreed.

(1) Housecleaning on the issues database and properly marking items as
"bite size," "hackathon ready," or some other appropriate label, will
make it much easier to respond when we get such a request.

(2) Once this is more-or-less under control, I'd like to start actively
looking for volunteers, hackathon events, and any other opportunities
to get more involvement.
