Ahh where to start. Our goal is 50 developers & designers in teams of up to 4 and we're already up to 25 registered. We will definitely exceed the 50 goal before October 15th gets here.

The Reno hacker community is starting to bubble a little bit. We have a lot of people in the area that do remote work and work from home so you might be out at a bar and be sitting next to a great developer without realizing it because they are probably not used to discussing their work with people locally.

Some background, I run the Reno Collective coworking space in town. I've been working to pull these folks out of their remote work caves and start meeting one another either here at the space or at our events.

The business and "technology" community that gets most of the attention in Reno is pretty much stuck in 1995 and we've been trying to change that through Ignite Reno, WordCamp, monthly hacknights and now with Hack4Reno we're trying to be more public about the fact that there is a lot of great talent in the area.

I could go on forever, but if you're looking to get in touch with the local dev community, we are having the next Hack4Reno meetup on Wednesday at Reno Collective at 5:30pm or feel free to come by anytime during the week, I'd love to meet you.
