[Evan]

Another month, another opportunity for MXUG! Wednesday 20th (two weeks
today). The talks page is here:

https://sites.google.com/site/mxugau/home/2011-07-20

This is a roll-over from last month's fizzle, so could those already
signed up for a talk or the coding competition confirm they are still
good to go. (Korny, Sam, Noon, Duncan & Craig.)

Wanta participate in the coding competition? Sign up on the page so we
get an idea of who's gonna play (but even if you don't sign up, just
show up, we'll let you participate.)

Got a talk? Some new gadget? *An account on Google+ you can demo?*
Sign up on the link above.

...aaaaand go!

Yep, still ready. And don't forget about the prize, for the winner,
namely a collection of famous papers from the theory of information!

me too

Sorry - I'll probably be in Sydney on the 20th.  The start date for the job is the 18th, so there's some hope of a delay, and if delayed I'll keep y'all posted; but at the moment I'm probably a no show.

(I will organise someone to manage doors/pizza if I can't make it)

- Korny

Okay, well nevertheless, let's go ahead with the competition and in
the worst case, if it is only me competing, I'll declare myself the
winner and we can move on to new things.
