Topic: Undeading Trees - using Xournal to draw and write on PDF documents

illustrating.

Please come and join us for some good conversation over good food and
drinks, which are both optional. Friends and family are all welcome.

The private room where we meet has power and high speed wireless Internet,
so if you have any problems, feel free to bring in your machine and we'll
see what we can do to help you fix your problem. We even have facilities
there to do a formal presentation, so if you have a projector and want to
show everyone something exciting ( or play games on a projector ), we can
handle that as well.

If you don't find parking in the front of Iguana Macks, there is plenty
more behind the building.

The Arizona Business and Liberty Experience ( ABLEconf ) is a
business-oriented Free Software conference organized by a coalition of
many Arizona Free Software groups.
