Announcements

• For the Electrical ppl. Come the meeting on thursday. We have parts.
• 09/21/06 I saw this book label RoboCup 2003 in the library and I've taken the liberty to check it out. I left it in the Tin building in room 109 if anyone wants to see it. Its checked out in my name so e-mail me or leave a msg on the board to let me know if your borrowing it, but you shouldn't have to as it came with a CD which I think just has all the papers in the book. Oh yeah, Go Jackets! Phillip 19:08, 21 September 2006 (EDT)

• 08/08/06 Finally put down on paper and wiki the protocol design. Will add some more pics and give more detail as time goes on. Next up wireless hardware. --Phillip
