Unfortunately Zach and I, the empowered spokes for Tech, got our schedules
messed up and neither of us will be at Sunday's meeting. We both apologize
for the inconvenience. Although since I don't think we have any decisions
planned for this coming meeting, I don't think this is a huge problem.
In our absence I submit the following report from Tech, which maps out some
of the tasks ahead of us, prioritizing them and puting them into a calendar.
The tasks which we picked a date for are listed in order by date. These
dates should be viewed as tentative, so please speak up if you think things
should be moved.
