Problems to think about by Feb 05: CFFSSpring2010Round01contd (this continues the cycle on zero-dimensional spaces) and CFFSSpring2010CardFunctions1 (the first round of problems on cardinal functions; mostly these are trivial inequalities; but think about distinguishing examples!)

Feb 05: meeting canceled for weather problems.
