"So the folks who were proposing venues, could you please get back to us on this?"
I believe Robert from S7 has already done that and I know he has at least 14 Computers and a Projector, plus a fantastic Mexican restaurant next door which covers the catering. Otherwise Palm Cafe serves great Pizza and delivers to S7. "Physical meeting: S7 is happy to host LUG meetings (almost) anytime we want, barring only times where other events are scheduled at S7. Most Friday afternoons after Good Friday are available." I suggest next propose a date?
