IRL Meeting

[Jordan Keyes]

I agree. An OSS movie night would be great, as would an OSS gaming night
(assuming we determined what games would be played ahead of time so we
wouldn't waste a lot of time getting everyone set up).
etank also mentioned at OLF the possibility of doing a meeting where we go
through some of the videos on http://www.showmedo.com to start learning
python (or something else).
