Dear All, 

I added to the Wikipedia talk Page for Toronto meet ups a section for the 
planning for a February 2011 meet up.  Please use the below link to indicate if 
you are interested to attend, and suggested dates/time, and locations. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Meetup/Toronto

I would like to find a location early next week so please indicate suggestion 
by Sunday if possible. 

Thanks
James
