Dear Twin Cities - Agile Philanthropists,

Thanks so much for your interest in helping out Mano a Mano. Ed Kraay
is flying in on Sunday to kick off this event with Mano a Mano. We
would love to have you for any portion of the events and of course
would be happy to help as we move forward on moving their web presence
over to a more dynamic programming platform. This will set them up to
be able to add the more programming intensive features to help them
deliver on their mission.

Our hope with Agile Philanthropy is to channel the talents of folks in
the software delivery industry and let them use those talents (and
Agile Methods) to help not for profits.

Here are some details about what we are planning.

Sunday: 4pm - 6pm Meet and Greet at Mano a Mano - This
session will let you get to know more about Mano a Mano
Monday: 9am - 5pm Project Kickoff and Backlog Refinement
(Working Session)
Tuesday: 9am - 5pm User Story Refinement (possible
prototyping)

Please let us know if you can make it for any of the events or if
there is a better time for you to participate. One thought is if we
can get folks together some evening after we get the story cards
together we might be able to get some code done. You can come to
observe or to actively work

If you know of anyone that would like to participate please let them
know or just bring them along. We would be especially thankful for
folks with usability or web design skills.
