Re: Technical Meeting 22nd Feb
[ Editors note I have changed the attachment its contents can be found at http://www.gellyfi.sh/stuff/torridirections.pdf /J\ ] Here you go, directions to Torrington. The address is: Torrington Interactive 2 Printing House Yard London E2 7PR Printing House Yard is on the junction of Old Street, Shoreditch High St, Hackney Road and Kingsland Road. We are about 10-15 minutes walk from Old St and Liverpool St tubes. I have attached the official 'Directions to Torrington' PDF file. However, after 6:30 pm the gate on Hackney Road is closed and the only entrance is through the back gates which are on Waterson St (the first road on the left as you walk up Hackney Rd).

I suspect that unfortunately the attendance at this meeting will be adversely affected by Damian being in town only a few days later. And will there be net connectivity in the room? We can probably get by without, but it would be nice to have. We have a 2meg line and we can make sure that there are a few ports patched through from the boardroom. We are also running DHCP so people can get an IP if required. Excellent. Let's call that a plan then. Can you post directions to Torrington, and then I'll post an official announcement. Cheers, Dave... I Have removed the PDF map attachment and placed it at: http://www.gellyfi.sh/stuff/torridirections.pdf Because it was bounced by majordomo :) /J\
Re: Technical Meeting 22nd Feb
I'm assuming that Matt won't want to talk for the _whole_ evening :) So anyone got a short talk they want to give as a support act? Cheers, Dave... Related question: What kit are we going to need for this? (projector, etc.). Also what kit are we going to need for Damian's talk? (projector, PA, wireless microphones?) Neil. -- Neil C.

Can someone at Torrington please confirm which of that list they can supply. Thanks. Also what kit are we going to need for Damian's talk? (projector, PA, wireless microphones?) I'll be able to answer that better after I've visited tomorrow. I strongly suspect that we'll be asking to borrow you prjector again tho' Neil. Cheers, Dave...

We can supply either a screen or a white wall, not sure which yet but we will supply one or the other. So if somebody else can supply the projector that would be good. Thanks Matt. I guess we'll impose on Neil for his projector again, if that's ok :) No probs projector booked. Neil. -- Neil C. Ford Yet Another Computer Solutions Company [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Something the size of the cinemas at the ICA and a PA and mics will almost be a necessity. The room we're looking at holds 80-100 people, so that's borderline PA territory in my book. And isn't the VGA connection a requirement for the projector? Or the laptop? Or something other than the room itself? Confused?

What I meant was that if the room was titchy we wouldn't need a PA, etc. Might need a VGA extension cable regardless as the one on the projector isn't extremely long. Neil. -- Neil C.
