=============================================================== From: Joe Freeman via chugalug ------------------------------------------------------ I've been running HA for a couple of years and I still haven't gotten very far on the dashboards.

=============================================================== From: Dave Brockman via chugalug ------------------------------------------------------ I can do the 26th. I still don't know what I don't know, so I expect the first conversation to be rather basic, with a few specific scenario questions. Just let me know when and where works. Aaron, If you want to schedule a lunch and learn type event, I'll gladly offer the house as venue, and grill some burgers/dogs for the lunch portion :) 12 people max (including you and me).

=============================================================== From: Dave Brockman via chugalug ------------------------------------------------------ Clyde's is my usual goto on that side of town for lunch :) 12:30 on the 26th is on my calendar. Lunch and Learn still an option, but I know Aaron has a couple of fires he's working on, so we can plan that as schedules allow.
