Hi!

For those that missed our brief announcements at the last meeting,
here's a quick summary.

At the end of this month, Laen will be offering the Introduction to PCB
Layout Using Eagle workshop on Sunday, September 25th at ADX. Here's
the page:

We also announced that we will be using every 4th Monday meeting or so
to have (more formal) presentations. This is in keeping with the more
conventional (globally expected) Dorkbot format, but is mostly a great
opportunity for creators to showcase their work in greater detail with
an attentive audience.

We are expecting the format to be 2 (or maybe 3) presenters, each in the
15-20 minute range (flexible), with an OpenDork between them. For those
new here, OpenDork is basically some open mic time, where anybody can
address the audience and show stuff off, request help, propose
collaboration, etc.

Our first Monday presentation will be on October 10th. Presently, we're
looking for 2 people who would like to do presentations on 10/10. If
interested, please email me directly.

Thanks!
