already some useful places where civic tech developers hang out in
real-time and provide cross-project coding advice/tips/etc. ... if
there are channels, where should I point our new developers?
If there are not cross-project IRC channels, is this a good idea?
For a civic-based project that relies on tech contractors and
volunteers rather than having tech folks at the core, we need places
to plug-in!

P.S. Meet Bill Bushey, our new tech lead:
http://tech.mn/news/2012/10/03/know-this-nerd-william-bushey/ Right
now he is focused on the python-based GroupServer online groups tool
that we use - http://groupserver.org/groups/development - and we are
also plotting a Drupal hack-a-thon on e-block tools that include VOIP
options for extreme accessibility -
