A short warning before I begin; [02:22:16] <Sionide> my meeting report is going to be rubbish, but nevermind - better than nothing and people can always reply with corrections / more info
And so I'll begin...
Hello all,
Summary: A good pub meet up, with 2 new faces - Jerry and Michael, which is great and is definitely what I like to see... So if you're reading this and haven't been to one of our pub meets, make sure you come along next month!
Role Call: Jerry Michael Martjin (mak) Myself, Simon (Sionide) Adam (quinophex) Mike Paul (paul_c) JT (mChicago) Ross (RossF) Richard (ironChicken) Neil (or maybe Neal?) and a late appearance from Joe (Joeboy)
I think it was Paul who had the bright idea of reserving the tables at the Reindeer as we've had problems getting decent seats in previous meets. We should probably continue this for future meets...
So there we were in the corner by the door, and discussing, as we do, open-source, linux as well as other general rubbish & nonsense.. *coughJTcough*
Discussed Topics: (which I heard) -Development of Scouting through the ages. -Adam's new job. -NiLith Batteries, pros and cons. -Lost, the TV series. -Rock Linux. -Can you drive tanks on the road? -The possibility of creating a huge aerial using 4.6km of wire to receive 9KHZ radio signals. -Discussions of Paul's very "flashy" looking camera (haha, I'm so not funny)
If anyone remembers anything else talked about or would like to continue any of these particular discussions on the mailing list, feel free!
Mak said I had to mention the fact that JT came straight from work, wearing his suit. Hehe... Well, it tickled us at the time anyway.
Thanks for coming every body, see you next month!
-Simon
