It may be too loud, though. i have to agree with Samir that we should concentrate on attendance and then determine whether or not it warrants looking for a specific, permanent meeting location. i think 4-5 people have replied as definitely interested and a handful have kinda sorta mentioned that a meetup in Naper-Wheaton would be nice. once we have a group of people that are interested in helping to coordinate we can start organizing meetings/topics/locations/etc. Scott, Dave, should we just pick a date and coffee shop/Panera and talk about trying to organize a bit more? others would definitely be welcome to join in physically or virtually. but we could meet and kick around some ideas and then present them to the list? -- Andrew Close City of Naperville does have meeting rooms http://www.naperville.il.us/meetingrooms.aspx#Meeting_Rooms Not sure about restrictions or cost. I once attended a Windows meeting at the municipal center. The library also has rooms http://www.naperville-lib.org/libservices/meetingroom.htm. A drawback would be poor provision of AC power. -- Linux Users Of Northern Illinois (Chicago) - Technical Discussion http://luni.org/mailman/listinfo/luni
