Re: [IronPython] Seattle IronPython Meetup
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.

Re: [IronPython] Seattle IronPython Meetup
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. -Steve Steve Baer Robert McNeel Associates www.rhino3d.com python.rhino3d.com -Original Message- From: Jeff Hardy Sent: Friday, June 10, 2011 1:59 PM To: st...@mcneel.com Subject: Re: [IronPython] Seattle IronPython Meetup Hi Steve, Interesting offer - would evening or weekends work better?

Re: [IronPython] Seattle IronPython Meetup
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 :). - Jeff On Fri, Jun 10, 2011 at 10:42 AM, Jeff Hardy jdha...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, Is anyone in the Seattle area interested in an IronPython meetup, or even a sprint?
