I am all for the combination of the events, if all parties can agree. I think it would be beneficial to both groups, as well as the event itself. I should be able to attend the meeting this wednesday but I may be a few minutes late, dependent on a timely release from class and an operational PRT. Hopefully we'll be able to get things pinned down on Wednesday so we can move along in whatever direction we decide with certainty.
