[ausev] hi all, new here, introduction ahead

[Chris Robison]

For the past few months we've been pretty informal, and general meetings
haven't been held. At the moment we've settled on having a meeting every
other month, but I don't think that's necessarily etched in stone either.

On many weekends there's something happening somewhere.  I've been holding
"open garage" sessions at my place every Saturday, but these days they're
starting to get a bit boring as my progress is held up by some difficult
decision-making about my truck's frame, and piddling around with
electronics (taking a lot of time since I don't entirely know what I'm
doing yet).

However, there are other projects which stand to show a lot more progress
than mine.  Having another few work sessions at Erik Bigelow's place might
see his Cabriolet on the road in time for the Sustainable Shopper's Ball
event?
