Topic ideas for next meeting...
by Tim Keller June 19, 2016

June 19, 2016

Hey Gang, Would people be interested in my talking about GitLab? It's basically your own personal Github. I could also dove tail this into a general talk about Git / Source Control, etc. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

June 9, 2016

Hey, Jon has to bug out early tonight. My plan is to bring a pizza for John and his buddy as well as bring along some snacks for us and we'll go out afterwards. If the crowd is large enough we might have to change venues, but I figure we'll roll with it. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
