- Discussed the possibility of having a presentation on the use of Libre Office Calc in the future, as well as one on hardware maintenance from an outside presenter.

- David G introduced the attendees to two new browsers Thorium and Mercury.
Aftermath:
- Some of the members retired to Culver’s to enjoy some food and additional conversation. All of which was not necessarily Linux related.
