with students for a hackathon.

Hi Sheila,

My name is Radhir and I am a staff member of HackIllinois, a 36-hour
hackathon at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign where students
from across the nation come to build some of the most innovative hardware
and software projects. For highlights from last year’s event, check out
go.hackillinois.org/video.

>From February 19-21st 2016, HackIllinois returns and is continuing its
creative exploration. This year, we are introducing a new initiative called
OpenSource at HackIllinois to promote Open Source development during the
event. We are inviting you, along with other developers from the local
area, to work alongside students and make meaningful contributions to the
Open Source community during HackIllinois.

This is a great opportunity for students to meet and collaborate with
experienced developers and get involved in Open Source initiatives. You, as
an open source group, will be able to promote your open source project and
bring new programmers into the community. For more details about this
initiative, please see http://www.hackillinois.org/opensource.

If you or any other open source developers you work with are interested in
learning more about OpenSource at HackIllinois, I’d love to set-up a phone
call. I look forward to speaking with you soon!

Best Regards,

Radhir Kothuri
