[Board] Board meeting in Syndey?

[Cameron Shorter]

Do you realise the code sprint is on Saturday? I assume half the board 
will be at the code sprint.
Saturday won't work because we won't have employees around to open the 
office for you.

You could sit ourside our office (which is on a wharf) and make use of 
our wireless. I suspect the cafe a few doors down would still be able to 
see our wireless.
