April Meetings

2001-03-25 Thread Dave Cross

The April meetings are approaching and we have no firm plans for them yet.

The social meeting will be on April 5th. Last plan I remember was that 
mstevens was going to investigate booking the cellar bar at the Cittie of 
Yorke. Did that happen?

The technical meeting is on April 19th. Can anyone volunteer somewhere for 
us to hold it. We need room for about 30-40 people, a white wall and an 
internet connection.

Also, we'll need speakers for the technical meeting. If you've got anything 
cool to tell us about, please let me know. It may be a good opportunity to 
practice TPC or YAPC talks.

Dave...

Hmmm  or, you could have your social meeting in Belfast, while Schwern
is still here ...

unless anyone has any arguments, i'll buy a fast, reliable largish hard

i'd like to do it via dabs.com, because their interface is useable and
i've not personally had any problems with them.  i'll pick only in-stock
stuff because i understand that they can be slacker than they advertise
when it comes to re-stocking.  jo would hopefully oversee the process so i
don't end up ordering bananas by mistake.

are the mungers happy with this approach?  or would you prefer bananas?

Sounds good to me.

Can we have bananas too?

I can always do a talk or two, if anyone wants to listen, but not on the 19th.
26th would be fine.

Thanks for the offer Simon, but I've already postponed this meeting once 
and am loathe to do it again.

Some other time, perhaps.

You might want to change the content-type on that directory as I get a
funny error :)
 
 As far as I can see, the people volunteering to provide replacements were 
 as follows:
 
 Guestbook   JNS

Real Soon Now ... Just caught in the 'New Laptop Transition'

 WWWboardJNS

Nearly there.  I just get fucked off every time I look at the original.

 Counter

 Random Image Displayer  Dave C
 Random Link Generator   Dave C
 Textclock   Mark F
 Countdown   Mark F
 Free For All Links  JNS

 Textcounter Dave C
 HTTP Cookie Library
 SSI Random Image Generator  Dave C
 Random Text Dave C

 So it looks like we've got most of then sewn up. Anyone else want to report 
 on progress or grab one of the outstanding ones to do?

Anyhow what are we going to do about the 'C++' ones :)
