  * POSSE tech gurus are *not* instructors (they don't have to be POSSE
    instructors, but they can be)  (mchua, 19:37:26)
  * POSSE tech gurus are contributors to the FOSS project being used for
    that POSSE, who are deeply involved in its development on a

    participants to help them get started with that same sort of
    contribution  (mchua, 19:38:03)
  * IDEA: POSSE Kernel Hacking suggested to be at U of Alabama at
    Huntsville due to it being close to Clark, and wcohen being former

    though.  (mchua, 19:44:29)
