[Events] Finding staff for python workshops and project nights

[sheila miguez]

It's my fault. I didn't find my stash of name tags and didn't make enough
time to get more. You are totally right!

At CPW we had name-tags for everyone, with a different colour for helpers.

I think I enjoyed helping -- I wasn't expecting to help, but I started
walking someone through the django tutorial -- and may have a few updates
for the setup wiki pages since the mac didn't allow smultron to run.
