Just a reminder that we're having our July meeting tonight at Duck
Duck Go's headquarters in Paoli.  Their office is near the
intersection of Lancaster Ave. and Paoli Pike, and is a short walk
from the Paoli train station.  http://act.yapc.eu/ddg2012/hq.html has
links to maps that show its exact location.  There's plenty of free
parking behind the building.

The talk will be Torsten "Getty" Raudssus talking about Duck Duck Go
infrastructure and plugins.

To answer Nate's question, registration is not required.  If we get
the same number of people we typically get for a phl.pm meeting at
Penn, there should be plenty of space.
