Hello. Apparently the OpenGuides project is five years old this month. We should have a meetup! Is anyone willing to cat-herd for this? If not, then I will do it, but I'm really quite busy at the moment so it would be lovely if someone else could.
Since nobody has volunteered then I guess it's down to me. That's OK - I'm less busy now than I was at the start of the month.
Can everyone interested in attending an OpenGuides meet in the UK some time in the next four months or so reply to me offlist and let me know:
- whether you prefer Fridays, Saturdays, or Sundays, in general - which areas of the UK you would probably be able to attend a meet in - whether there are any specific dates you definitely can't make - anything else I need to take into consideration in choosing a date/venue
The meet will be purely social. If it's on a Friday then it will be in the evening; if it's on a Saturday or Sunday then it will probably start in the afternoon and continue through to the evening. It will almost certainly be in either Oxford or London, but I'm willing to consider other places.
Also, if you have made substantial contributions to OpenGuides but are not interested in attending a meet wherever or whenever it is, please let me know that so I don't pester you individually. The "pester individually" list includes Dom, Earle, and Ivor at the moment - let me know if I should add anyone else to this list.
Apologies to people outside the UK, but it has to be in the UK if I'm going to organise it, as I don't have a passport at the moment.
