Re: Meeting Format Feedback


2 presentations per meeting would be a bit much.

I like the idea of lightning talks or maybe a 10-15 min ad hoc
discussion on some current topic. I'd also be up for the exercise idea
that Matt suggested. Maybe just send a project euler problem to the
list a week or two before the meeting and anyone who wants to can
present their solution.
