Given that there's no official Drupal meetup this month, is anyone interested in getting together for an informal pre-DrupalCon Drupal meetup? We could just meet for drinks, we could allow people to bring projects they're working on that they need help/advice on, or both/neither. Or, hell, we could just have a Drupal 6 release party.
Anyway, I'm obviously down for a meetup before DrupalCon (I need a drink and am grasping at straws here people!), anyone else?

Got any suggestions for time and place?

Thursday?
Let's not do it on Tuesday obviously since people might go to the PHP Security Event. How about Thursday?

There's a PANMA event on Thursday.
How about either Wednesday or the following Tuesday (the 26th)? As far as venue goes, I think we should look for two criteria: proximity to transportation (near one of the Regional Rail lines, if possible, so people could take the train if they wanted), and someplace with wireless (on the off chance someone wants to show off a site or get some help/ask for suggestions).
A few ideas for bars, though I'll have to check for wireless (if we really need it):
Nodding Head (1516 Sansom) - http://www.ripsneakers.com/nodding/
Cherry St. Tavern (129 N 22nd St) - http://philadelphia.citysearch.com/profile/8949855/philadelphia_pa/cherr...
Good Dog Bar and Restaurant (224 S 15th St) - http://philadelphia.citysearch.com/profile/40862003/philadelphia_pa/good...
Fergies (1214 Sansom ) - http://search.cityguide.aol.com/philadelphia/bars/fergies-pub/v-108069687

vote for Tues 26
I've been meaning to get to a meetup for a couple months now, and can't do the other times. Any of the locations work for me.

I'm good for any day, but I'm a fan of Nodding Head.
Tues 8:30+ or Weds, Thurs
Tuesday I can't do until after 8:30 (and I'd be in Center City at that time) but if that night works for everyone else then I could just be late. I can do anytime on Weds (27) or Thursday (28).
Tuesday the 26th, 7:30-10:00pm, at Nodding Head?
Any objections?

I put up a poll...
What night should we have our meetup at Nodding Head?
I kept Tuesday on the list on the off chance that other people couldn't do any of the other days, but I voted for Wednesday...
