We're a startup from Montreal heavily into NLP, Machine Learning and
big data.(Hopper Travel) We do Hack/Reduce events, basically give
people free access to a huge cluster (500 nodes) for one day and see
what happens. (hackreduce.org)
We're organizing a hopefully very cool Hack/Reduce in Ottawa on the
13th of August (Saturday).

Have you heard about this event? If not, what do you think would be a
channel we should have used so that you would have heard about it?

Would be great if you'd like to attend and push this out to your
developer friends. The page for the event is at hackreduce.org/ottawa
and registration is open at hackreduce4.eventbrite.com. Feel free to
tweet/holler about the event, that would be great!

Thanks,
Riku
