[BLU/Officers] August BLU meeting

[John Abreau]

Sounds good to me.

I'm primarily interested in the Raspberry Pi 4 demo, so Kurt would have to
ensure that his two speakers were done before 8:00 so Brian could have a
full hour.

I'll hold off on further updating the calendar entry until the agenda
has been finalized, which Brian has indicated should be by the end of the
month.

Thanks, guys!
