Meeting RESCHEDULED to May 18th!

by Tim Keller

Hey Wluggers, Because of commencement, etc. we were unable to get a room at WPI. I've decided to reschedule the meeting to May 18th. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Hey Gang, Speaking with Frank, next week is commencement week at WPI. Consequently ALL the rooms are booked. I'm pushing the meeting off a week to the 18th. Thanks, Tim.

So, are we decided on talking about Plex / Kodi? Is there enough there to turn into a whole meeting? Maybe we could do a Plex / RetroPi mashup meeting? Thanks, Tim.
