No Meeting for October 2008

Due to the gas shortage in Atlanta, Atlanta PHP has decided to cancel its regularly scheduled October meeting. We apologize for the short notice, but we felt this was the right decision to make given the current situation.

We will resume our regularly scheduled meetings on Thursday, November 6th. We hope to see you there!

Now, for a few announcements:
