GR.pm Meeting This Friday, October 27th @ 11:30am

[Joel Meulenberg]

OK, I have confirmation on the meeting room.  This Friday's meeting
will be in "Classroom 1" in the 1239 building (see map referenced
below).  The 1239 building is directly in front of you as you drive
into Waters Circle.  Classroom 1 is in the basement of the 1239
building.  For those of you who have been in the "old" classroom 1
before, this is the "new" classroom 1 - it's way down at the north end
of the main north/south hallway in the basement of 1239.  This is the
opposite end of the hallway from where the "old" classroom 1 was.

You should enter the 1239 building at the main entrace and check in at
the front receptionist's desk (ground floor).  Someone should be there
to escort you down to classroom 1.  If not, the receptionist can tell
you the way.

See you there.
