Re: Technical Meeting Sponsorship
Quoting Dave Cross ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): It would be spectacularly appropriate :) I agree :-) I can't remember exactly what the email I got from them said, but they were _far_ cheaper than the Commonwealth Institute (which I also investigated). There was a larger room for ~500 and a smaller one for ~70. I think the smaller one costs 155 for the evening. So that is looking pretty good to me right now. If I don't get any other volunteers I may consider making it a Magnum Solutions sponsored event (if it only costs 150!) You can jot me down for a personal sponsorship of 50. No way I can get a corporate sponsorship in time. Cheers, -- Merijn Broeren | Everything in excess! To enjoy the flavour of life, Software Geek | take big bites. Moderation is for monks. |

Thank you. Once again we see the awesome power of the Perl communities bottomless pockets :) I've had pledges of £120 and a promise of unlimited wealth from Jonathan Stowe, so I'm going to press ahead with the Conway Hall option. Cheers, Dave...

That's a very interesting idea, but I think we have plenty of private sponsors to raise the money for the Conway Hall.

Conway Hall would be a great venue, for the name alone! It can't be too expensive, because it's used by any number of fringe anarcho groups, who presumably don't have too much cash spilling around. .robin.

It would also be quite an interesting venue with a lot of character and Holborn is easy to get to (central and north of the river). -- 1024/D9C69DF9 steve mynott [EMAIL PROTECTED] same thing day after day - tube - work - diner - work - ...tube - armchair - tub

Yeah, in the late seventies - early eighties you used to get bands the like of Crass and Crisis playing there (use Google you yoofs) I think it is (the hall that is ) thinged up with some religious group with strong socialist (in the general rather than party sense) political views ... /J\ -- Jonathan Stowe | http://www.gellyfish.com | I'm with Grep on this one http://www.tackleway.co.uk |
