[Andy Smith <andyster@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just for verification, this testing meeting is scheduled for 12pm Pacfiic on
Tuesdays? I just added http://tinyurl.com/openstack-meetings to my calendar
and it appears to be scheduled for 2pm Pacific on Tuesdays. The PPB meeting
appears to have last been on a Thursday and has no other scheduled
instances...
