[Neurobureau-hubs] Brainhack 2012 and brainhack.org updates

[Maarten Mennes]

I can do the same here with our cluster at the Donders...

However, I think that if we are going to use these resources (i.e., local
clusters) we need to make sure the data for the project that will use that
cluster are already present. You don't want to loose time having to
transfer data...

At the Donders that might lead to some other problems re. space quota, but
I might be able to pull something off to get some temporary space.

We could also approach Mike regarding the cluster he has at NKI (for all I
know it's not being hammered yet).
