[volunteers] volunteers Digest, Vol 49, Issue 2

[Margaret Wendall]

Darlene -

I'd already updated the meeting notices when I read your email. I had to
condense the notes about Kyle Rankin.

I marked the March Installfest as "tentative," because we have an invitation
to join CABAL on the 2nd or 4th Saturdays until our regular Installfests
resume. When we determine which Saturday this would be, I'll make the
changes. Incidentally, the CABAL meetings seem to run from 1 p.m. to
whenever.
