Daniel:

I'd like to talk to you about some fields I'd like to see in the article
forms.  Things like keywords to use in metatags that htdig can use to
provide better results for searches.  I'll also need to talk to Jason
about this too.  Tonight or tomorrow night on IRC are best for me (g/f
back friday night from a week long trip.)  I should be online most of
tonight/tomorrow so feel free to drop in anytime.
