Me?  I was all prepared to say that there's no way I'm going up to Belmont.  But, it looks like a snap to get there from Caltrain, so I'm willing, if that's where it ends up.

I notice that they have posted meeting topics through September.  Sept is AJAX, which my son is very enthusiastic about, and he has made some amazing web pages with it.

For a joint meeting to work, I guess it should be relevent to both Python and Linux.  Too bad Alex's talk isn't December.

I have no idea how to make it happen, but Dennis, I'll bet you can do it if folks think it's a good idea.
