[CCGT] No call tomorrow

[Julie Wulf-Knoerzer]

Hi all,
We have decided not to have a community call tomorrow.  We'll plan to talk 
after next week's GFSG telecon to discuss the community program for 
GridWorld/GGF15.  In the meantime, please send me any program suggestions 
you might have.
Thanks,
Julie
