[LRUG] May Meeting - Specifics

[Roland Swingler]

I would be interested in a more coherent discussion of REST, but agree
that two meetings back to back on the subject may be too much. I would
def. be interested in a talk on OpenID as it is something I haven't
had time to look into yet.

Cheers,
Roland
