[sudo-discuss] Let's move in together!

[Jenny Ryan]

This is all very exciting news! I am fully in support, of course ;) buut I
also feel we are in need of a fourth group to rent the other room, or
perhaps Berkeley Biolabs can establish a sink collaboration with CCL?

Cheers from Kamarom, Hungary at the conclusion of a most excellent hacker
camp! \o/
