Re: things to do at fri 2004-05-28 meeting (was: Re: [Fwd: Re: Meeting in Oes Hoes ...)

[stap@xxxxxx (Jan Stap)]

Hi people,

Sounds we have more than enough for one evening. 99% chance I'll be
there (lot on my hands lately). In that case, I'll be a happy volunteer
for autoconfiscation of some software project (e.g. an ogg/mp3 CD label 
generator (Perl + gd grafics lib), or an image viewer in Javascript).
Or a script keeping web sites up to date from a set of CVS modules.
Joost, I assume you have a screen & keyboard for the workshop?
(I should buy a laptop one of these days).

Cheers,

Jan
