Two thoughts / questions:

 * How large are the meeting areas in their new digs?

 * How bureaucratic is the entrance process? Security guards and lifts (as
   you'd remember was a pain at IBM in St Leonards)? Will everyone have to
   sign NDAs and not look at the walls (as is usual for Google events)?

I'd imagine both issues would've been prime candidates to solve along with
their move, but figured it was worth finding out anyway.

Thanks,
