Thanks for the responses, folks.

Based on tips here and other feedback I've gotten, I think it is worthwhile to discuss my side work if I think it's relevant to a potential role, but emphasize that it doesn't conflict with my main job.

The reality is that I am doing this side work both because it's really fun and it's the type of experience I am looking to gain (that my regular job doesn't provide). I'd be glad to put it aside when I start a new role.

To put it another way, if I weren't doing this side work, I'd be doing similar personal projects.
