The March Meeting

We decided on two dates for the next meeting:

March the 1st (primary) and the 8th (backup).

We try to have the meeting at March the first but if we run into trouble with either the locality or the demo we will switch to the backup date.

Stay tuned on our mailing list for further infos concerning the date and the program.
