I have a projector reserved for the meeting. There is a charge of $9/hour with a minimum of 2 hours. I don't have any problem covering this cost until we can (hopefully) get a stipend from the University to cover the expenses. On the same note, there is no charge to have wired internet access arranged for the meetings (e.g. installfest). Craig On Monday 22 August 2005 21:37, Craig D.
