@Joshua Horowitz @André Terron @Chris G @Daniel Garcia @abeyer and anyone else here who is interested I propose we book a meeting room at the Capitol Hill library with a projector in case people want to demo something.

Works for me, though I think Capitol Hill has a monitor on the wall, but not a projector
Probably plenty big for a group this size though
d
Looks like SPL meeting rooms are more popular than I thought. They are all reserved.
a
Yeah, unless you are super flexible in time/location or just happen to find a spot that works, they book up early. The group I organize has been trying to book at least 60 days out to get what we want
d
It makes sense it would be popular. I didn’t see the availability until I created an account. We’re going to be a small group so I’m thinking we just pick a coffee shop this time.
a
If people want a projector and SLU works, I could probably coopt a conference room at my office. Would just have to try to get people together on time and have people txt me to get in the building if they're late
j
@abeyer: one cute setup for that would be to meet at a nearby coffeeshop for 30m or so, for people to arrive, and then move to office. just a thought!
d
That sounds good to me! Any good place to meet nearby?
j
IDK where @abeyer’s work is, but Caffe Ladro & Cafe Hagen are both open till 6p on Friday.
a
I'm at Denny & Westlake, so either of those could work, or I'm fine just doing a coffee shop too, if we don't think we need a screen
j
@Daniel Worthington mentioned 6pm as the ideal time, and those shops close at 6pm, so I think they’re only good for a short pre-gathering. (Unless timing is flexible.)
d
What about Top Pot on 5th? They are open until 7
a
Top Pot works for me. I'm also open to starting a bit earlier if people want to, as well.
d
I can also start earlier.
a
Also open to starting earlier.
d
Let’s meet at 5:30 at Top Pot (on 5th Ave) and we can move to the office for a screen and or time if we want.
Now that we’ve arrived at a plan it looks like I can’t make it until 6. Ugh. Sorry.
😆 1
a
6pm at Top Pot (5th Ave) it is!
j
See y'all then and there!
a
I may get there a bit before 6 anyway
I'd not realized until someone just mentioned it: tonight is the seafair torchlight parade on 4th, so may need to plan to navigate around that 😬
d
Yikes. Thanks for the heads up.
a
I did get here early (and with surprisingly little issue from parade disruption, so that's good). Got a table at the back upstairs.

eta 6:10
d
Looks like 6:15 for me
a
I assume there's no Top Pot parking lot, right?
a
not afaik, but not a driver
