3. Identify a couple more projects in the hackspace + print trial QR labels for them.
What?
Attach printed-out QR codes to each project. That QR code will contain a link to the relevant project page on the wiki.
Where?
Project boxes and projects in the hackspace.
When?
With any luck from 4th August onwards. I will print out a test batch.
Why?
This will facilitate collaboration as everyone can then find the most relevant wiki page for that project quickly.
