Sorry for not jumping right back on this. Yep, databases -- MSAccess. Part
of the whole "template/easy/ubiquitous" issue.

There's a meeting tonight -- 6:30pm-8:00pm (not AM) at Stella's
coffee house, 1476 South Pearl Street, Denver.  We're in the meeting
room; NOT the back rooms!  OH, the social half-hour is 6:30-7, the
meetings start sharply at 7 and end at 8pm.  We usually will hang around
for social chat for a bit afterwards, and there's a bar right across the
street!

I suppose we could set up a Linux spot at the end of the table? Brainstorm
some things like how to get more advocacy going. (For the people who
aren't at the Linux in Schools thing)

Later,
jed
