Re: Meeting for August.

"That used to be GOSLINGS (Getting Open Source Logic Into GovernmentS).
They're still going strong, but now meeting in the basement of the
building TUPOC tried to squat..."

Richard, you are certainly a fountain of knowledge, and I have stopped questioning how you know all these things.  Well, I have some questions.. I might attend the meetup on Friday and bother these others with those, over nachos. :)

I can plan for this Thursday.  If others don't necessarily want to present, I stumbled across a legal article that we could discuss!
I know, I know, but it is actually quite interesting: https://www.itworldcanada.com/article/canadian-law-in-conflict-with-aspects-of-gpl/15982

That used to be GOSLINGS (Getting Open Source Logic Into GovernmentS).
They're still going strong, but now meeting in the basement of the
building TUPOC tried to squat...

I'd somewhat strongly recommend sticking with the first Thursday.  (But
after the regular date is somewhat better than before so those regulars
expecting it won't miss it.)
