[game_preservation] Private SIG meeting at GDC

[Andrew Armstrong]

I'll be grabbing one to eat there, heh. I've got a half-hour after my 
meetup and before these sessions. You might be glad it's in a box if 
you're busy.

Lunchtime is variable in any case, there's not a great amount of time 
which isn't sessions - I note now they are doing more random times this 
year, unless last year they had things starting and ending on the 
half-hour mark often.
