[LRUG] [ANN] February meeting details - talks still needed

[Murray Steele]

Another topic idea, should anyobe have experience or wnat to spend a couple
of weeks exploring it.  Dragon Ruby game toolkit seems interesting and
neat.  I would love to hear a little bit about it.

It also happens to be free right now for the duration of the global game
jam https://itch.io/s/115645/dragonruby-free-for-global-game-jam-2024 -
perfect time to grab a copy and explore!
