UIC ACM

Unfortuantly our speaker had to cancel and there was not enough time to prepair for a replacment meeting topic so the meeting today is canceled.

Meeting for the Flourish Open Source Conference will occur this
Wednesday, February 1st, at the UIC Computer Science lounge (SELE
2260) at 5:30 P.M.

Do get involved and help us make it something awesome or new or
anything cool (and relevant) you can come up with. Check out the
website here: http://www.flourishconf.com

For directions to SELE 2260, please visit the UIC Mega Pathfinder:

Chicago, IL

The conference itself is approaching in a few months, so do expect an
extensive discussion about where we would like help, and what's the
status so far for the correspondences we've had. Also, very helpful
suggestions have popped up on the Flourish list, so come aboard, bring
everything concerning you and Flourish, and hopefully something could
get smoothed out by conference time.
