stephen- tonight I just want to get double buffering working, possibly complete the midpoint line drawing for all cases
graham- point at mp3 file and chunk into little wav files
vinny- get glyphs rendering in contexts, maybe with animation

vinny – didn’t get stuff meant to do done. skype audio, links for python group
visit! one of our colleagues, the philosopher scientist Matt stopped by on his visit to Atlanta. He’s been writing articles on Epistimology, which if things ever clear up, should start helping us understand why we believe the things we do about science and knowledge.
todo items:
why is luke’s feed item not showing up in Atlanta Tech?
svn with project integration
titus – next week wants to get custom menus at the top for different operations
