Subject: Re: [Bricolabs] a question for brico list

Quickie here, drowning in tasks before becoming unemployed once again.
Will only reply really important things:

* Ubatuba next may is serious - no program, no funding, only the desire
to hang out with friends. I'm suggesting the third week - from 14th to
19th. We can provide invitation letter for those who need it. We can
sign any invitation letters people ask us to, also. Come visit the
tropic of capricorn!
* CulturaDigital.Br was fun. Lots of interesting people doing
interesting things. Will report when time comes back to normal pace.
* Anyone knows how was Patrice's surgery?
* Ian, can you temporarily close the wiki for registered users?
