This is exactly the kind of presentation we should be having at 
BayPiggies.  Unfortunately, the next opening in our Google calender is 
November.  We would have to bump someone to even propose inviting this talk 
or talks like it.

I think we should have Google meetings *every* month.  The present 
alternating schedule is holding back the much larger audience at Google. 
Let me propose a change in schedule here:

         IronPort meetings 2nd Thur     4 times/year
         Google meetings   3rd Thur 10-12 times/year
        East Bay          1st Thur   1-2 (future, none now)

The 10-12 for Google allows us to skip "slow" months such as Aug or Dec, or 
not.  The *concept* of this proposal is that we grow to be a real Bay area 
organization.  The 6x/year is holding back the group centered at 
Google.  By decoupling the IronPort meetings, we can let the constituency 
at each site grow as they are able to attract speakers and audience.
