Date/Time/Location Discussion for Portland, ME #198

Closed llimllib closed 10 years ago

llimllib commented 10 years ago

Let's figure out a date, time, and location that work for a plurality of the proposed Portland, ME meeting of Computer Anonymous. Check out computeranonymous.org if you forgot what it's about.

I think we should aim for the week of November 4-8. I also think we should have it in Portland, because I'm in Portland :)

So, what nights work for you on the week of November 4-8? In early voting, November 7, 7PM at Salvage BBQ has been the favorite. Let us know if that's not good for you!

People that expressed interest on twitter that I don't see on github: @BarrettSprague @pistraami @not_that_guy

Please loop in anybody else who may be interested! (Also I almost certainly forgot somebody so I sincerely apologize if I did)

I will wait until morning to send this out on Twitter.

We had the Django meetup at Think Tank tonight, that wasn't a bad venue? Would it maybe be good for this sort of event? It's a lot quieter than most bars, and had tons of space.

Any night that week works for me.

mtdonahue commented 10 years ago

How about Thursday 11/7? I assume that the Think Tank will let us BYOB?

From my experience at meetups at Think Tank, yes. I'm fine having it at TT for an initial meetup, but what does everyone think of using the meetup as a way to also try new local pubs/bars?

Also, 11/7 is also fine with me.

11/7 sounds good. Any venue's fine with me as long as it's quiet enough that you can have a conversation without having to yell.

sogrady commented 10 years ago

Pretty sure I can do 11/7. Outside chance I get tied up in CA earlier in the week, but odds are I'll be there. As for venue, I'm down with Think Tank, a pub or wherever as long as there's beer.

johncosta commented 10 years ago

11/7 looks good for me.

sto1t commented 10 years ago

11/7 is good for me as well. I'm with neruson on the conversation compatible atmosphere.

mpistrang commented 10 years ago

I'm out for 11/7, but definitely keep me in the loop for the next one.

noise commented 10 years ago

I haven't met any of you yet but looking forward to it, thanks for the invite!

llimllib commented 10 years ago

I have contacted Think Tank but not received any response yet.

I think as a backup, we could use the new Salvage BBQ. It's quite spacious.

justinsteele commented 10 years ago

Salvage sounds good, been meaning to check it out. Also I'm assuming a Thursday night won't be too busy.. But we'll see. On Oct 25, 2013 10:43 AM, "Bill Mill" notifications@github.com wrote:

I've heard positive things about Salvage as well, seems like a good choice.

rlandry commented 10 years ago

11/7 should be OK for me but plans could change.

llimllib commented 10 years ago

Think Tank did get back to me, but they want to charge me and there's also the opening-the-door issue, so I think I'm going to call it for Salvage.

Anyone object?

drtortoise commented 10 years ago

First meeting proposed and up on website as per https://github.com/computeranonymous/computer/pull/212
