I hadn't suggested the week after Thanksgiving as

1) it would create the same conflicts with other meetups as the postponed Sept meeting
2) it seems that between Thanksgiving and later winter holidays people are more- rather than less-busy with office parties, family stuff, etc.
3) the 4th of Dec is the 2nd to the last night of Chanukah

The December meeting would fall on Christmas. One week later is New Years. Is the clear choice on this one is to roll it up a week to 18Dec? Thoughts?

I might have posted this preamaturely

Barry is checking on the space availability and might change this as needed.

We can find a location

It will be good to set the schedule, we can find a meeting place from there.

In the past we've canceled the December meetup. The day before Thanksgiving seems not so popular. I propose we meet in the middle (literally) and have Nov/Dec combined meeting on Wednesday December 11th.

I've checked and we can have the Intermedia space to ourselves that evening; other alternatives (week before Thanks, week after Thanks) have space conflicts. And the 11th date seems like a good inbetweener option.

Whaddya think? I'll also raise this issue at the Oct 23rd meetup -- if it seems like we all agree, I'll go ahead and post.
