Also, the next DDD meeting is the 1st of September. There's a LOT to
read... chapter 13 is about 5 pages, but chapter 14 is giant. if
you're got some extra time... NOW might be a good time to start.
However, I'll ping you all a few days before the meeting and see how
we're doing. We may end up doing chapter 13 and the first half of 14
if we aren't getting through it beforehand.
Anyone that is new to Skype, try to get on a few minutes early so we
can work out any technical problems beforehand. If you haven't done a
voice chat using your computer before, make sure you have sound and a
mic, and if you're planning on using speakers(on a laptop or
otherwise), keep a pair of headphones handy as a backup as sometimes
speakers cause echo with these programs (really, headphones would be
preferable). Headphones with a built-in mic would be ideal.
My Skype ID is ajepst, and I'll be creating/running the conference.
IM me on Skype once you're online to let me know that you want to be
part of the conference and I'll add you in when we get started.
