[Campus-uw-staff] Budget for Open Hatch's 'Open Source Comes to Campus' workshop at UW

Hi Gretchen,

I was wondering if you might be able to help with arranging some 
catering for this Open Hatch 'Open Source Comes to Campus' workshop on 
Sunday 16 Nov that I'm helping to run.

The plan is for a lunch of pizza and drinks for 30 people in 
Communications (CMU) 104 during 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm.

We have had requests for vegetarian, nondairy and gluten free options. 
I'd be curious to see if there is a type of pizza that could satisfy all 
of that!

Bill has agreed to commit $840 from eScience towards this event.

Thanks very much,

Ben
