[Myexperiment-discuss] Re: Open Social Hackathon - London April 6th

[John Norman]

Cambridge is looking at Shindig/Sakai integration. Ian and Nico cannot  
make it on Sunday either, but Michiel and I have registered  
(unfortunately we are the least technical, but I hope to learn  
something without being too distracting/disruptive). We will also  
attend (all 4) ApacheCon Europe on Wednesday mainly to go to the  
Shindig BOF.
