[Penguicon-Concom] Programming Meeting Scheduled

Sun Jan 27 15:49:34 GMT 2008

As I wrote to Sarah, I'm going to try and make it to next Saturday's programming meeting, but I spent the night hacking up a lung and just trying to feed myself breakfast left me shaky - not up to a three-hour drive there today.
