Sorry to burst into the conversation here, but I organize the Geo DC meetups <http://www.meetup.com/Geo-DC/> in Washington, DC, and I am going to be in London for vacation on Nov 4-6 and again Nov 18-19, and I was wondering if those dates might overlap with any chances to socialize! I'm very new to OSM, but I just attended State of the Map US a few weeks ago, and I'm excited to learn more and meet more of this really interesting community.
We've got one tomorrow, but that's a tad too early... Hopefully Harry will chip in shortly and say when we might do the next one.
Are there any meetups or mapping parties planned, or would anyone be interested in meeting up for a drink then? One thing that I know for certain I'll be doing is heading to SoHo to check out the [site of the] Broad Street pump and the John Snow pub. No idea if the pub is any good, but John Snow is a pretty interesting character, so I'm excited to follow up some of the reading I've done recently by actually walking around the neighborhood that saw the worst of that particular cholera outbreak <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1854_Broad_Street_cholera_outbreak>.
The John Snow is reasonable - it's a Sam Smith's pub these days so nothing special except that the beer is cheap.
We have used it once or twice for meetups, but not recently. Tom -- Tom Hughes ([email protected]) http://compton.nu/ _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
