2002-10-10 Thread Bob Miller
Here is what I think we concensed at tonight. We're going to try for two presentation tracks. Call them the newbie track and the advanced track. Each track will have a presentation once a month. (I personally have my doubts about us being able to keep up that pace -- prove me wrong.) Since it
