## Divnix
The divnix org is an open space that spontaniously formed out of "the Nix".
It is really just a place where otherwise unrelated people a) get
together and b) stuff done.
It's a place to stop "geeking out in isolation" (or within company boundaries),
experiment and learn together and iterate quickly on best practices. That's what it is.
It might eventually become a non-profit if that's not too complicated or if those
goals are sufficiently upstreamed into "the Nix", dissolved.
