Hello there.
Doesn't seem like there's a formal meet-up planned for this month. Would people like to get together for a bit of a social next week - just get together and chat Drupal, ask and answer Drupal questions?
What about getting together on Wednesday 25th at 7.30/8.00pm at the Irish Heather? I suggest this as Francis is having a meeting to discuss his work space idea at the library at 6.00pm on this day (http://groups.drupal.org/node/33042#comment-106702) so there might already be a concentration of Drupallers in the city that evening.
Thoughts? Suggestions? Bad Idea?
Cheers, Olly.

I'm in...
Sounds good to me, I'm in!
Talk to Dale
Last I heard from Dale McGladdery, a few of days ago, he was planning a meeting for the 26th. That has not been confirmed and perhaps you're right, it's not going to happen. Maybe check with Dale first just in case.
After a great start at the
After a great start at the beginning of the month I dropped the ball on the meeting planning. I was going to do a business round table, but because I blinked am having trouble bringing it together. At this point, I'm not sure it would be fair to the presenters to schedule it on this short a notice.
Moving the business round table to January and doing an informal on Wed Nov 25th would be a great alternative. Appnovation is available on Thu Nov 26th if we wanted to get together then.

Dale I'm not quite clear on the plans for the month. It seems you're recommending a Wednesday social and possibly something on Thursday. This seems a little busy to me.
Unless something is happening on Thursday I'm happy to get together for a social on Wednesday evening. I'll try to make it to the library as well for the co-op talk.
Sorry, no, I'm not
Sorry, no, I'm not recommending both.
At this point I don't have anyone for a Thursday meeting. Let's go with a Wednesday social.
Ah, this sounds great, I wish
Ah, this sounds great, I wish I could come but I've got a concert to go to tomorrow. Hope you guys have a fun time!
Wednesday Social
Sounds like its a go for Wednesday?
Have been out of the loop for awhile and would like to reconnect.
The plan is Wednesday
So Wednesday, from 7.30pm at the Irish Heather in Gastown (http://www.irishheather.com/)
Usually we take over one end of the big bench table (behind the bar in the Salty Tongue side), or put a few tables together in the Shebeen Room at the very back.
Cheers, Olly.
drat...
Got something happening already tonight. If it breaks early (doubtful) I'll drop by. Anyone interested in a December co-working session? Would be happy to host on a Saturday afternoon.

scott - i was thinking
scott - i was thinking exactly the same thing xmas coworking hurrah - let's chat and pick a date for it!
Id be keen too.
I'd be keen to do some co-working too. I missed the last one!
Sick
I'd love to come along to the social only I've got a cold and don't feel much like traipsing downtown in the rain, and I don't want to spread the virus :) Scott, I'm totally up for a co-working session. I have lots of stuff to share and have lots of stuff I'd like to know. Maybe we could chat some more over IM at some point.

yay
What do people think of a (possibly corny!) Xmas cheer co-work? Was talking with Ariane yesterday about the delights of rum & soynog. Was thinking it might be fun to run a series of cartoons on the big screen (eg. Grinch who Stole Xmas, Charlie Brown Xmas, Simpson's Xmas, South Park Xmas, etc.) as background accompaniment, possibly interspersed with people who want taking the screen for 10-15 minutes between each feature to present their problems, solutions, etc.
Potential Saturdays are Dec. 12 or 19 (26 also works fine for me).
Thoughts?

19th turns out to be much better
Hey folks,
It turns out that the afternoon of December 19th will be much better due to an event that is happening oon the evening of the 12th. Can we plan for Dec. 19 and take it from there?
~s

yes please :-) can you reserve the space for us that day? (not sure if we want just afternoon or just evening or both or ? i'm inclined for just the afternoon...) thanks a bunch! once we have a ballpark time, we can post a proper event up for this.
