[NCUC Outreach] Outreach Meeting, Friday at 20:00 UTC

[Edward Morris]

Hi Bill,

I had considered using Google Hangout but some of our members specifically
requested Skype for this meeting. Hangout requires a small download and
those accessing the meeting from their places of employment might not have
the privileges to do so on their corporate system.
