I've been talking about having a meetup in Oxford for a while, and we
never managed the one in London a while ago, so here goes. I'm aiming to
hold it before Christmas.
There are several of us in Oxford who I hope can make it, and I know
that Tom and Mark from Milton Keynes have expressed an interest. Oxford
is 1h on the train from London Paddington and 90 minutes by bus from
Marble Arch, so I hope that some of the London crowd will be able to
make it. Of course, all are welcome, however far away you came from :)
I would like to suggest that we hold both a hackfest and a pubmeet.
Initially I would like to know how many people would like to come to
which parts of this, and when they can come, and venues and other
details can be sorted out later. I expect that the event may span
multiple days.
Please could you, therefore, tell that lovely little page
http://www.meetomatic.com/respond.asp?id=FBN07B
all about your preferred dates, and put any other relevant comments
into the comment box (including whether, if you would like to attend
more than one day, if you require any accommodation - as I may be able
to arrange crash space). It would also be useful to know if you have a
laptop with wireless you would bring or would need a computer to work
on for the hackfest. The comments box is quite small, so free to email
me these details instead.
Sorry for the vagueness of this email - I've no real idea how many
people would be interested in which parts, so once I've had some
responses I will be able to post more details and dates.
One thing worth pointing out is that you don't need to be a coder to
attend the hackfest part of things - if you have any sort of interest in
OpenGuides you're more than welcome.
Cheers,
Dominic.
