In order to discuss the conference and related plans, I think there should be a good number of people attending. If not, it'll be pretty pointless. However, I don't think we should stop having the monthly meetings. If there are sufficient people around, maybe we can hold a small user group meetup like last time this weekend (28 or so)? What say? So are we having a meeting on 28 March? -- Abhinav Sarkar Web: http://claimid.com/abhin4v Twitter: http://twitter.com/abhin4v - The world is a book, those who do not travel read only one page. ___ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers

Btw, what is the agenda ? What do you plan to accomplish in this meeting ? I don't think one should call this just like a general technical meeting. Otherwise it might just turn out to be a melee. Please plan ahead on a few key points to discuss. Ask attendees to come prepared with points and questions. The Agenda Upcoming Python Conference is too broad. Unless some key people are attending such a meeting, I don't see the point in it. For example - Is Ramdas, Jace there ? Is Sree (Mahiti) attending ? I don' see any +1s from them.

Re: [BangPypers] Face to face meeting for Python conference
I am sorry! -1 for tomorrow from me personally. But I am looking forward to a meeting soon. Suggest 28th instead, if others are Ok. Btw, I think it'll be a nice idea if we can've separate threads on sub topics on the event, so that interested volunteers/parties can take things forward on those threads. say have separate threads on sponsorships, venue, content, promotion, logistics etc, and keep discussing. I must confess that at least for me the IRC discussion was a bit cluttered to follow exactly what people were trying to emphasise. A meeting of at least 8-10 of us is a must, to really see where we are . just an idea, we can have a live update, broadcast or commentary on key issues discussed/suggested just like cricinfo cricket commentary, so that those who cannot attend the meeting can be updated, and some real time opinions suggestions can also come in. It can be done on IRC itself, but other options such as Twitter can also be explored. Do advise On Thu, Mar 19, 2009 at 9:35 PM, Darkseid lorddae...@gmail.com wrote: That's fine dude, no problemo.

If sufficient people do chime in, Sidu can probably arrange the venue. I can, and if we end up doing this it will be at ThoughtWorks, Diamond District, Airport Rd.
