[Klug-general] Digibury next session

[Kevin Groves]

Good to meet you last night.

For anyone not there and interested in Ardunio a good project that I 
picked up on a protoyping system at http://fritzing.org/ very nice and 
not just for Ardunio, it provides a nice breadboard - schematic - pcb 
designer.
