If people can make it, let's aim to meet at the Hackspace just before the [[Weekly Open Evenings|weekly open evening]] at '''18:30 on Tuesday 6th February 2018'''.

We could even start to follow [http://www.richardosgood.com/blog/how-to-setup-a-raspberry-pi-packet-radio-node-with-zork/ the Zork instructions].
 
People coming (please add names): [[User:Rawles|Rawles]]; [[User:Samuelkf|Samuelkf]].
 
If that's a bad time for people, we'll change the date, so please check back here before the meeting to avoid a wasted journey.
