February 15th.

I’ve confirmed with linuxcaffe.ca for Friday February 15th at 5:00.

We’ll start at 5:00 sharp. We’ll have a break at 6:00 for about 15-20 minutes to get a bite to eat (linuxcaffe serves great food and beverages) then continue on with the presentation. No end time, but it’s likely to be 8′ish.

To ensure that all this planning work doesn’t conflict with my natural laziness, here’s the dealio intended to keep my work to a minimum. To confirm your spot, you need to paypal $10 to gcooke at sourceage.com preferably by Thursday February 7th along with your name or username. Only the first 25 people will have reservations - and we will be unable to accept latecomers or people showing up the day of and hoping for a spot. Not unless something drastic happens and we don’t fill the space - but you’d best assume that’s not going to happen; the last two times we’ve done this we’ve run out of space.

Please come prepared to buy your dinner during the 6:00 break. When booking a spot like this it’s normal to have to guarantee a certain volume. Linux cafe is letting me away without that guarantee this time but I assured them everyone would be having a bite to eat at that time. Hey, they’ve got to make a living, and we want to support that if we’re getting their space for free. It’s very kind of them to allow us the benefit of the doubt like this (I doubt anyone else would); the alternative is costs go up for everyone and I have to commit and organize and that all sounds like work I’m not looking to do. We get free meeting spots without commitment, you drop a tenner on a sandwich and a drink, they pay their rent, and everyone’s happy.

Bring your business cards. See you there!
