Dear QLis30 fans.
That is one thing that SQLUG has not thought off.
I can imagine it will enable a number of people to take part who
otherwise
would not be able to attend.
Will an optical fibre connection and wireless router to the internet
do?
What other facilities would be desirable to achieve this?

Hi Geoff,
I am happy to support this. When this gets off the ground, I will
send in
my sponsorship money well before the event is held.
If you choose a location that has reasonable internet access, I'd
like to
attend by telepresence, and show off some of the items we're
designing and
making, a few more of which should be available by then.
Exciting times!
Dave

I am pleased to report there is a glimmer of hope for QLis30.
At the moment we are looking at the possibility of an event in
Edinburgh,
although the discussions are provisional.
We are thinking of a late Autumn one day event, preferably on a
Saturday,
at a venue near the airport.
A one day event is easier to get off the ground than a two day event
for
both financial and practical reasons with a greater choice of
venues. One
venue being considered is a church hall unavailable Sunday a.m.
It would be possible to have some activity such as a meal on the
Friday.
Some of you will remember the last show held in Portslade in 2007.
The hall
was booked for one day but we had a very successful dinner the night
before
at an unusual Belgian restaurant.
When the possibility of an event in Edinburgh was first raised some
weeks
ago several German QL-ers, very active in the QL-community,
expressed an
interest. We would like to get a group of developers and other
highly
active QL-ers together for both formal and informal contacts. We
want a
good cross fertilisation of ideas to hopefully give the QL a push
forward.
I have agreed to work on the theme, programme and content, but will
need
quite a bit of feedback. To avoid this email becoming too long, I'll
write
again in a few days time,
Best wishes,
Geoff
