The e-Go is a novel light aircraft aimed at world markets. Innovation is key in product design, production processes and the business model. The team is developing technology that should provide a step change in performance, costs and environmental impacts.
The e-Go is the brainchild of Giotto Castelli and Tony Bishop, and is being brought to life by them and Roy Twigg, and a small army of volunteers.
Tony will be talking about the e-Go and the project to bring it to market.
Venue: Mills & Reeve - 112 Hills Rd, Cambridge. Doors open 7.30pm. Everyone welcome.

We're going to reorganise the November pubmeet, December talk, and January pubmeet & talk.
We won't have the traditional 3rd-Monday pubmeet in November, instead, we'll put that off until the beginning of December, replacing our normal 1st-Monday-of-the-month talk with a meetup at the Arts Picturehouse (this location is provisional until I've had confirmation that they have space.). We will also move the January talk from the 1st Monday of January to the 3rd Monday of January 2010, discarding our January meetup.
So - the next meeting will be on 7th Dec, with the location provisionally the Arts Picturehouse.

If you have a website, or want a website, you'll probably have heard of Content Management Systems (CMS) - software for managing websites. The aim of most CMSs is to make it easy for anyone to make web pages and put them onto a web server. We'll be looking at several popular CMSs - what makes each unique and why you'd want to use it. We plan to have examples of Drupal, ExpressionEngine, inCharge, Joomla and Wordpress to test drive.
