Sorry for the late announcement - this should have gone out last week.

The next Balloon developer meeting will be at Toby Churchill Ltd,
10:00 am, Friday 13th July. This is rescheduled from last month, as
previously posted. 

We'd like to try and keep this to a half-day rather than have it take
all day, but we'll have to see how things go.

There has been a great deal of activity on the balloon front in the
last couple of months with the software now in much better shape
(although still in need of plenty of work).

We are very close to the point where CUED can start shiping developer
boxes and want to try and deal with any outstranding issues at this
meeting so it can happen.

All are welcome; please reply so we have an idea how many will be
there. Some sustenance will be provided.

Agenda will cover these issues - please reply if there are things you
things should be added:

* Balloon Open Hardware License - needs finalising enough that we can
  release stuff (expect more mail about this next week)

* Demo systems:
   Brainstorming cool demo ideas
   
* Balloon dev system distribution list 
   - who gets them?
   - community mobilisation - communication issues
