[Adium-devl] Meeting on April 5th

[Eitan Konigsburg]

Hi everyone,
I'm one of the "really new guys" around here.  Just thought I'd pipe
in.  I'd like to attend a meeting about Adium as I'm trying to find
ways to help out.  I live in the EST in the U.S and am somewhat
flexible about the time to meet.  I also can't meet while at work
during the day.  Just let me know when the meeting will be and I will
do my best to get there.
Look forward to speaking with all or some of you.
Eitan
