-- %MAINWEB%.BillMcGonigle - 15 Aug 2006

This is going to be a synthesis of MeetingIdeas and MeetingSpeakers.  To be combined into at least a 3-column table.  Add past meetings?

The following table lists some speakers and what they are willing to talk about.

And check individual TWiki pages (for example: Main.BruceDawson) to see find topics that person is willing to talk about.  And see MeetingIdeas for topics that people have requested.  And see the VolunteerList for general volunteers.  And don't begin a sentence with the word "and".
