A reminder that the next 'CRC Global Social' is Nov. 20 from 4pm to 6pm in Austin, TX and 3pm to 5pm in Cheyenne, WY. We'll be meeting at Spiderhouse. More info will be sent out in the next few days. There's a distributed hackathon between various hackerspaces going on that same day, so if anyone has any ideas nows the time to holler.

Something I snarfed from the Plan 9 mailing list that might be of interest...
