Announcements

Next Meeting

Note the long delay until the next meeting...we may want to reschedule!

The first possible date occurs while I'm at the EPICS meeting in Vancouver, and the following one is during the GlueX collaboration meeting. Thus the next regularly scheduled meeting would occur on 27-May-2009, perhaps a bit too far off. I'll make a proposal for a date before 27-May.
