 Hi all,
 Is anyone in the Seattle area interested in an IronPython meetup, or

 something out (probably for the coming week).

 I'm new to the area, so if anyone has any suggestions on where to
 meet, feel free. I'd prefer to avoid downtown Seattle, unless that
 works for everyone else.

I'm from Canada, so this is normal (more rain though). I look forward

If you end up putting together a sprint, the PSF Sprints committee will
gladly throw some money your way to sweeten the deal.

Yeah, if there's a way to skype the meeting, that would be great. We've been
doing that with some of our UG meetings here in Virginia  D.C. recently
with some success. We typically have one person aim a
webcam at whoever's speaking and turn the gain up on the mic. Works pretty
well.

Thanks,

Kevin

Re: [IronPython] Seattle IronPython Meetup

2011-06-10 Thread Steve Baer
Doesn't really matter; we're a pretty laid back company.  We have a meeting 
room that comfortably holds at least 15 (could hold more) with a big screen 
television that we can hook up to.  We actually have the room pretty well 
wired with mics and a soundboard since we hold a weekly Tuesday lunch 
meeting there and include a few co-workers in Europe and in other states 
through skype or teamviewer.


Weekends and evenings are also fine, but if the weather starts getting too 
nice I might not be there to open the door;)


We're using IronPython as a scripting language on both our Windows and Mac 
products.

Hi Steve,
Interesting offer - would evening or weekends work better? And how
many people could you accommodate (realistically, we might get 3 or 4,
but I'm eternally hopeful...)

Re: [IronPython] Seattle IronPython Meetup

2011-06-10 Thread Jeff Hardy
OK, follow up questions:

* When? Sometime this coming week would work great for me; what about
anyone else?

* What times work best? Either weekends or evenings are fine by me.

* What format? Right now I'm thinking that we actually plan it as a
sprint, with perhaps a couple of lightning talks thrown in.

* Who's coming? A few people have indicated interest; I'd like to have
a half-dozen or so committed people. I'd also like to get some newbies
there; I'm not sure how best to reach out to them.

If there's no rough consensus, I'll just pick a date  time. We'll
probably use Steve Baer's graciously volunteered office, so obviously
Steve has a fair bit of say over the date  time :).
