[omaha] Jeff lunch/coffee

[Matt Payne]

I'm just learning Django.   Hopefully I'll get my first app running on
heroku.com and report back really soon.   As I learn I'd be happy to pair
with people to show them what I know.   Either in a coffee shop for folks
new to the group or at a meeting.

Thanks --Matt Payne; cell: (402) 208 8787
