Works for me, though I have a work meeting that says it ends at 3, so I may be 
a minute or two late.

I've got y'all set up in the Github org, though I clearly need to do some 
cleanup there: Now there're roles? With finer-grained permissions? I guess?

I'll get y'all in to the servers once this laptop installs Ansible. It's only 
been 30 minutes so far, so it's just screaming along :p... I've been meaning to 
start managing the servers via Ansible and this seems the perfect time to get 
my feet wet setting up 3 new users with SSH keys and sudo permissions across 3 
systems. (Also, I'm getting a new laptop before the summit, because this 
early-2016 12" MacBook is just... not... cutting it... anymore...)
