Request for Comments (RFC) for all Projects

This isn't a normal hackathon - we try to give people a taste of industry by providing a hand-crafted hackathon experience.  We've found that having this small amount of upfront direction really helps people hit the ground running during the hackathon.

Take a few minutes to review the projects and ask away!
