Hi wheel, tech & committee,

I would like to schedule a meeting of the Wheel Group on Monday 28th 
January, starting at 6:30pm in the UCC clubroom. All current and past 
wheel members are invited, and anyone who else who is interested is 
welcome to attend. Remote participation over IRC / Discord will be an 
option for those who cannot make it in person.

For those who want to grab something to eat beforehand, meet in the 
clubroom to carpool or make your way directly to Chelsea Pizza Nedlands 
for 5:30pm. Table reservations will be made according to expected 
attendance.

A proposed agenda for the meeting is available under 
/home/wheel/docs/meetings/agenda.20180128 which wheel members are able 
to edit. Reminder emails will be sent closer to the date with updated 
copies. See below for the current version:
