What would be good, is if the meetings alternated, such as not just one a wednesday, I can not attend cause I work wednesday nights, if it was moved to another night, you may have newer faces show. Sometimes it is just the day. But it is a good idea, maybee another week and another weekday (or weekend). -- -Rune Time is Irrelevant to the worlds beyond this godforsaken place unto which it destroys all. -Aarune J.

But :I'm a little concerned about growth issues. : :I see a few options. : :1) Have more meetings. I figure if we were to meet, say, 3 times a month :for PLUG (with more specialized meetings), and one for PADS (Debian), :fewer people would come to each meeting, more people could come overall, :and those of us who are obsessed enough to do so, could get 4 days per :month of this stuff. Yes, I just offered to host meetings 4 days per :month. : :2) Find a bigger place. : :2.a)I just read completely through the thread where Avi Freedman offered :the use of a 100 seat lecture hall, with ethernet to multiple T3s, plus :soda and chips -- at Netaxs' facilities. Of course, that was not in :center city, and that bothered a lot of people. But perhaps we could have :a meeting at Netaxs, and a meeting at IQ, each month (on different :subjects). : :2.b)The company I used to work for had a very large space and a lot of :chairs that they use for 300+ person meetings. I was going to look into :using it, but then I left. Adam ? : :2.c)My basement. I'm looking into buying a house in northeast philly -- :20 minutes from center city on the R8. It has a basement that I figure I :could get more than 40 seats in. I figure it's an unlikely alternative, :but it was an interesting random thought. But if I do get the place, :you're all invited to regular lan parties :) : : :I really need to get into the Philly Perl Mongers, largely because I'm :interested, and largely to see how they do things, since they're obviously :doing stuff right. : :Tomorrow I will talk to the person who arranges things about how many :people we can fit for presentations at IQ. And how to set that up on a :regular basis. Then I figure we'll continue as we have been until we :don't fit, or start doing another meeting per month, or something.... : :__________________________________________________________________ :PGP fingerprint = 03 5B 9B A0 16 33 91 2F A5 77 BC EE 43 71 98 D4 : darxus@op.net / http://www.op.net/~darxus : "There is no spoon." : : : :_______________________________________________ :Plug maillist - Plug@lists.nothinbut.net :http://lists.nothinbut.net/mail/listinfo/plug : _______________________________________________ Plug maillist - Plug@lists.nothinbut.net http://lists.nothinbut.net/mail/listinfo/plug
