[Baypiggies] April Meeting Proposal - Ivan Krstić

[Rand Bradley]

Ivan is confirmed to speak on April 11. The EMTECH chairs are unwilling to
move the date to 4/12. Since Google facilities are not available, we will
hold the meeting at the EMTECH facility located at the Cubberley Community
Center. I will send out more meeting information to the group once I have
the talk synopsis from Ivan. I will work on getting the information together
next week.
