Hi Javier.

I think it makes a lot of sense to move the August meeting, given that a
lot (most?) people will be in Brisbane for PyCon AU.

I am ambivalent about moving the September meeting; I don't think having
a three week gap between two meetings hurts and I think it helps to be
as consistent as we can with the first Monday of the month (for example,
we always hold the November meeting on the first Monday, even though it
often means it is held over the Cup Day pseudo-long weekend).
