[ELECTRON] A quick announcement about the Raspberry Pi!

[laura jones]

Hi Nick, myself and a couple of friends got some funding a while back to supply asylum-seeking families in glasgow with computers using raspberry pis and mostly second-hand materials for the rest. It's been a massive learning curve, with various hitches and complications along the way. I know little about technology and have been largely relying on the expertise of others. We'd be happy to come along at some point to talk about our project and see what advice others have to offer. 

My number is 07907 428 515.

> Hi. I'm Nick - and I'm interested in starting a Raspberry Pi user group for Scotland, called ScotchPi. The site is at http://www.scotchpi.org.uk but it isn't running yet. Ideally, I'm hoping to have a monthly event which will showcase what folks are doing with their Raspberry Pi's, and show others how to use them to program using the inbuilt tools (including Scratch), and to interface with the hardware using the GPIO ports available on the machine.
