The Barista near fourseasons in Mehdipatnam is usually empty during weekends 
and can be venue for meetings. Its around 8KM's from hitech city. Ordering 
coffee is optional. A/C comfort and guitar are there. I think there is free 
wifi too :) There may be similar coffee shops at different places in the city 
and if you keep rotating the venue, owners/waiters will not mind. Try keeping 
the meeting around afternoon(say 11) when these are really deserted.  A round 
of coffee will buy us the right to hold regular meetings :) In the worst case 
if only one person turns up, he can have a cup of coffee while hacking away on 
his laptop :) Let us try to take advantage of these joints that multinationals 
have setup for us .
