Well, the topic may be in dispute (lack of communication?  Jeff seems to 
think we're still having backup night) but I'll show up anyway.  If we 
have a topic night, great.  If we don't, that's fine too.

Side note:  My "mobile Subversion working copy" thing (a.k.a. "mobile 
WCs on a stick") is pretty nifty.  That is, I've got it working now and 
it seems to work pretty well (been using it for less than a week, but 
I'm getting comfortable with having my WCs on my USB thumbdrive).  I'll 
demo it tonight for a couple minutes for interested people.  A couple 
people were hanging out around my laptop last week either because they 
thought the project was "cool" or they think that I'm cool (or both).

Oh, and Jim, you're most definitely welcome to come to the meeting - the 
RSVP is just a formality to see how much pizza Jeff or whoever brings it 
needs to bring and how many tables to reserve at the Cafe.  I run 
Windows (for the most part) but I like to see what's happening in the 
Linux realm as well as dabble with application portability, 
cross-platform environments, and enjoy uber-geeky things that make life 
easier (I'm a C++ software developer).  The group is great - lots of 
variety.
