Sorry, Tyler, my mistake. I definitely want to give credit where credit is due!

> Correct. Make:LehighValley (MLV) was started by me before the meetings with Matt and David or even knowledge that they existed. I had a group of friends working out of my parents garage on projects at the time. We had hoped to open a space in South Bethlehem in an old garage we found for rent.

I joined in on a few conference calls with Dave and Matt and then we had the first formal meeting of MLV at Hive4A after announcing it on the MakeLV mailing list. I moved to Michigan last July of 2011 and transferred rights to domain name to Josiah after leaving.

We will probably look to add a second regular meeting time during the week (limited hours help ensure a group of people or else we may all show up at different times), but that hasn't been determined yet.  In the mean time we'll announce on this list and try to post to the Google Calendar when we'll be opening the space beyond the regular time.

>>> Matt Tuerk at AEDC started Hive 4A, comprising the coworking space and the hackerspace in the Bridgeworks building.  I'm not sure if Matt also staked out Make: Lehigh Valley on hackerspaces.org, but I think so.  Matt and I met ~3 years ago and worked together to produce a proposal to the National Science Foundation for equipment and full-time staffing (not successful).  Shortly after that proposal went in, a small group of folks began meeting regularly, first as planning meetings, and then to actually build stuff as well as plan it ;-)  We've slowly grown and become more formalized since then.
