[sudo-discuss] Crypto Class Study Group

[April Glaser]

Hi Garrett!!

This is a great idea. And you all can def use Sudo for this - or we can
reserve a private room at Omni. Happy to help put it on the calendar,
etc (although I can't commit to the course).

Is there a day of the week/weekend daytime that you have in mind? Maybe
we can put out a poll on the list for what day would work best for folks
who are interested. I'm sure many would dig this.

Best, April
