[GRLUG] March 1st meeting, computer club attendees, Q&A

I was looking for the exact date/location for the meeting to forward
to some people at work and couldn't find it either on the wiki or the
original GRLUG site.

Whoever has access to the main GRLUG site, can it be updated to have a
large and obvious link to the wiki?

Can somebody update the wiki with the location/date of the meeting?
I'd do it, but I don't have the info.

Can somebody send an "official" announcement to the list, possibly
using the gmail event stuff?   I've used it for Perl Mongers with
decent results -- it shows up as a meeting invite in both gmail and
Outlook.

Thanks,
-Al
