Yeah, well, I efficiently managed this by being twenty minutes late.
Fortunately, Shannon and mct were already working on the door-opening
script, and I managed to futz around with the RealWorld Wikipage (I
need a mytouch 3g battery, it appears).

Next week, I realise I am out in San Diego. Who wants to take over
being late for the week?

When I get back (or before, if someone wants to do it), I want to
devote a meeting to working out how to help the Treasurer. It'd be
great to train up a bunch of minions to do the basic reconciliation
process -- not necessarily just to do the grunt work, but also to
understand how it works and how we might hack on it to improve it.
