[PLUG-Devel] Problem for this week's Devel meeting

[Joseph Sinclair]

I second the idea to meet at Boulders.
As a topic idea, perhaps we can have a round-table discussion regarding the impact (if any) that the Free and Open Source movements have had on software development in the Phoenix region, what impact (if any) it should have in the future, where we think it's going, and how we can/should impact the current direction.

Alternatively, we could just discuss the monthly presentation difficulties and brainstorm ideas for building the "pipeline" to reduce the perennial last-minute call for presenters.
