[Fedora-livecd-list] Spin SIG meeting (Tue Jun 10, 18:00 UTC)

[Sebastian Dziallas]

Hi,

I would really like to attend the meeting (I'm also a SIG member), but 
I'll be on a trip to the UK from today until Saturday and it's not very 
likely that I'll have a lot of internet access during that time. Maybe 
someone could e-mail me the log then... ;)

Thanks & Best Regards,
Sebastian
