[Board] OGC dinner in Calgary

[Jeff McKenna]

I agree, thanks for this update Jody!  I am very curious about this TC 
meeting, Peter Baumann is going to the OGC dinner tomorrow night, so 
maybe you can grab him and explain the progress made in Portland to him, 
over beer(s) tonight.  I'm such a hard task-manager, forcing you to have 
a beer in Calgary :)

Boots on the ground is super important!  Thanks Jody!
