 =Goal=
 To do actual, tangible work: written idea proposals, designs/mockups, new docs, code, and/or new tools or processes. The goal is to produce something tangible at the end of the three days. We want anyone and everyone to be able to participate and share their idea/feature/product & get it on the radar for 2014.
+=How it will work=
+Friday morning, anyone with an idea they want to work on with the team will make a 5-minute "pitch" about that idea. The idea can be a new feature, improvements to current features, new content, improvements to contend, new wiki code, or pretty much anything else.
+===a pitch must include:===
+* the idea
+* what will be produced when you are finished (articles, code, requirements doc, etc.)
+* what kind of help you need (User experience design, coding, writing, etc)
+* the pitch will be recorded in an etherpad & on a card for the "idea board"
+After all pitches have been made (you don't need to be present to pitch an idea), teams will form to work on the ideas. You can work on 1 idea at a time. work on ideas may finish before the end of the three days - in that case, the team will pick a new idea (with the same or different members) and work on that.
