[Robotgroup] Meeting Frequency...?

[Paul Atkinson]

Sounds like a good idea. Only problem is keeping people in sync with a
changing schedule. Perhaps we could meet at Pokes and do formal meetings 1st
& 3rd week and build nights 2nd & 4th week. Need to decide what to do with
5th Thursdays. Also need to find out if we can solder, etc at Pokes!?
