Call-out for help putting on a cryptoparty in Newcastle or Durham
-----------------------------------------------------------------

There's some interest in putting on a cryptoparty in May 2016, initially
being discussed on the Open Rights Group NE list (please subscribe and
then reply to this message) [1]

Some of us were involved with one in Durham about 18 months ago [2]. I'm
sending this to our two nearest LUGs as the last one was mostly an
off-shoot from Durham LUG and wouldn't have happened without their
support. Also our local makers as I know some of you will be up for it.

Please let us know if you can help us to organise, decorate, cater,
promote, do a bit of informal teaching, or just generally increase the
awesomeness.

Cheers,
Mark
