[bestbits] Update about João Pessoa Best Bits meeting on 8 November

[Sherly Haristya]

Hi Jeremy,

I want to upload a background paper, but after I clicked upload, it asked
for my account and password, which I don't have.  Could you please help?
Thanks.
And my appreciation to Renata Ribeiro to make this meeting happens.

Regards,
Sherly

>> *Dinner*

>> If you have any other questions, please let me know.

>> Finally I would like to publicly express a note of thanks to Renata
