Thank you for those who came down for the meeting today. The notes are on the wiki and published below. If anyone who couldn’t make it would like to volunteer for one of these tasks, has questions, or would like to suggest another idea task just send an email.

 

Jon will be posting the sign up sheet shortly. We’re looking for people to volunteer for a 3 hour shift, details to follow.  We’ll review the plan and all the materials prepared to date at our next meet-up on April 10th. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/San_Francisco_13
