Meetup days
Lately our Orlando attendance has been dropping and I find it increasingly difficult to have an open Saturday midday. I'm posting this poll for you the community to decide if we stay on the same day or move it to another day (note, Urban Rethink has to agree with the day we pick since they donate the space for our meetings so I have to check with them before I can announce a winner.)
If a weekday is chosen the meetings would most likely happen in the evening (7ish?). Please only vote if you are an attendee or possible attendee for future meetings.
I would be able to attend
I would be able to attend weekends if they were on the second or fourth weekend of the month. Otherwise, I'm voting for a weekday, like Monday.
my two cents....
Andrew, I know I've missed the past several months due to a crazy family and travel schedule. Part of the low attendance (if I am any indicator) could be a result of it being summertime.
Regardless, I agree that the middle of the day on a Saturday is really a deal-killer for me. My attendance has little to do with it being on the 3rd Saturday, but right in the middle of the day is tough. Saturday mornings would be preferable. That way we can be out before noon and have the rest of the day for family, chores, etc. During the week would probably be even better, as I can schedule it as "work" on the calendar.
I voted for a Monday above, particularly if its late afternoon or early evening. I don't know if I want to be Drupaling till 10pm on a Monday night, but that day/evening would work. I'll still remain as flexible as possible and I'll look forward to seeing what others think.
Thanks for keeping the Orlando group alive!

If its still alive, I'll come anytime!
Having just moved to Orlando (Sanford) I really miss going to a Drupal User's group (formerly San Francisco and Baltimore groups). If I can do anything to help, let me know!
