[TriLUG Volunteers] new pizza vendor

[Alan Porter]

As mentioned in the meeting last week, our usual pizza vendor, Megabite,
has gone our of business.  We're not sure whether it's temporary or
permanent... there was a hand-written sign on their door that said
"closed for emergency".

The Megabite guys offered us a good deal... we would get 16 pizzas for
$8 apiece.  We would typically call in the afternoon before a meeting so
they would have plenty of advance notice.

We need to find a new vendor who can offer a similar package of decent
food for a decent price.  If someone would like to call around for
quotes, the LUG would certainly benefit.  I suppose we don't have to
restrict ourselves to pizza, but we should keep in mind that we eat in
the meeting room, so some food is better than other.

Below are our notes from the steering wiki, which include our standard
order.

If you plan to call around, please respond to the volunteers list so we
don't have multiple people calling the same places with the same questions.

many thanks,

Alan
