This table is somewhat redundant with [http://mnstf.org/minicon/history/minicon_history.html].  However, it would be useful to have a place where we list more internal details about previous Minicons, like who ran various departments.  Let's use this for that.  In particular, let's '''not''' use this for membership totals, which are correct on the aforementioned page, and not here.

Revision as of 17:54, 8 January 2015

This table is somewhat redundant with [1]. However, it would be useful to have a place where we list more internal details about previous Minicons, like who ran various departments. Let's use this for that. In particular, let's not use this for membership totals, which are correct on the aforementioned page, and not here.
