Meetings

Page history last edited by KathleenLD 16 years, 4 months ago

Use this page to plan meetings and report on what was discussed to the group.

 

I just wanted to have a place for meeting related discussions to take place. -KLD

 

Hopefully we'll be able to have some virtual component to our meetings so that those who aren't nearby or able to make it can be involved. Ideas?

Oh, I'll Ustream it so we can have video and a chatroom. Or we can all do skype/oovoo type of a thing?

Andrew Lorenz said

at 4:44 pm on Nov 2, 2008

I can make it, time and location should be fine for me.

Andrew Lorenz said

at 4:45 pm on Nov 2, 2008

As far as the location, I'm assuming it's somewhere with WiFi... I don't want to drag my laptop and just have it sit in it's briefcase all night ;)

Okay I am going to suggest a first meeting of Thursday at 8:30 at either Panera or Wegman's in CampHill/Mechanicsburg area. Both are right there on the pike. We can Ustream it so that anyone not around can log on and watch/chat. Who's with me? Or who wants to tell me to shut up? : )

I can attend, at either location.

KathleenLD said

Wegman's has wifi? lol... who knew. Both are fine with me. Wegmans might be less crowded/noisy, but I've never been there so I'm not sure.

Depending on where I'm at with my NaNoWriMo work I may be able to make it out.

bpolensky said

at 6:31 pm on Nov 5, 2008

So how about Thursday, 8:30, Wegmans cafe? I'm pretty sure it has free wifi. If not, we can mosey over to Panera. I know for a fact they have wifi. So who is planning on coming?

KathleenLD said

at 10:15 pm on Nov 5, 2008

This would be tomorrow. I'm fine with that. Who else is in? Brian, do you think we could do some sort of webcast for people like Walt who aren't in town or can't make it?

bpolensky said

at 12:23 am on Nov 6, 2008

Of course we could. We will use: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/pchbg

I'm at @BarCampPhilly tomorrow. So make sure you guys record the webcast.

I'll be with you all in spirit :) Thx!

Decided to postpone first meeting so more ppl could show up. Who's available This Thursday at 8:00?

Andrew Lorenz said

at 10:04 pm on Nov 8, 2008

Any chance of getting on another day besides a Thursday? I'm totally booked on Thursday's until May 09.

bpolensky said

at 10:56 pm on Nov 8, 2008

Andrew - Maybe Mondays? I have class Wed nights and I think KLD has class on Tuesdays?

Andrew Lorenz said

at 2:49 pm on Nov 9, 2008

Monday's would work for me

bpolensky said

at 1:59 pm on Nov 11, 2008

Well if everyone agrees we can just start next Monday? I know after the new year Thursday will be bad for me because of grad school.... Who's up for meeting Monday the 24th?

Andrew Lorenz said

at 2:26 pm on Nov 11, 2008

Works for me... although next Monday is the 17th, not the 24th. I'm assuming it will be sometime after a "traditional" dinner time.

bpolensky said

at 3:17 pm on Nov 17, 2008

Anybody up for meeting tonight, or any other night this week? I am busy Wednesdays, but other days I can meet anytime after 8:00/8:30...

Andrew Lorenz said

at 3:44 pm on Nov 17, 2008

I can make it if it's 8:30ish, but I believe the originator of this podcamp idea is out of town (if I understand @kathleenLD's tweets right) so another night may be better. The only day out for me is Thursday (as it always is). I think, at least for the initial meeting, she should be there.

bpolensky said

at 4:21 pm on Nov 17, 2008

8:30 ish it would be. kathleen mentioned she wouldnt mind if the first mtg went without her, as long as it was just once. I'd rather see her be there though. But, it depends on when peopl can make it. I am sure not what everyone's schedule would be so we'll jus have to do some compromising obviously.

Andrew Lorenz said

at 7:16 pm on Nov 17, 2008

Are we a go or a no-go for tonight at 8:30? if it's a go, where are we meeting up?

bpolensky said

at 7:26 pm on Nov 17, 2008

You are the only one who responded, so I would say a no-go at this moment. : )

bpolensky said

at 12:23 pm on Nov 18, 2008

Anyone up for a Tuesday night meeting?

KathleenLD said

at 3:14 pm on Nov 18, 2008

Come on now, people. I'm not a dictator :P

I think we'll need to have another public twitter discussion about this to remind people. Feel free to start one; I've got a project coming up that I need to focus on at the moment so I probably won't start that any time in the next few days. Anyone else is welcome to though.

Andrew Lorenz said

at 5:07 pm on Nov 18, 2008

yup, but my guess is like last night, We're the only two ;)

Andrew Lorenz said

at 8:19 pm on Nov 18, 2008

I'm assuming this is a no-go for tonight... I'm thinking we could meet tomorrow night, regardless of who's available to discuss at least the website.... that's going to take me a good chunk of time to get up and running.

bpolensky said

at 9:05 am on Nov 26, 2008

Anybody up to meet tonight or any day next week?

Andrew Lorenz said

at 1:47 pm on Nov 26, 2008

@ Bpolensky Yup

bpolensky said

at 2:06 pm on Nov 26, 2008

Well if I get any interest I'll let you know. If not would you want to meet up to discuss starting up the website?

bpolensky said

at 2:10 pm on Nov 26, 2008

Well if I get any interest I'll let you know. If not would you want to meet up to discuss starting up the website?

Andrew Lorenz said

at 2:50 pm on Nov 26, 2008

Lets plan on that, I'd like to get the website started sooner then later since that will take some time and with me off the next few days I may be able to get a chunk of it done. Let me know a good time and place for you.

Someone should contact Blubrry about sponsorship. They are a sponsor at most PodCamps and have people in the northeast who could also attend.

When getting a venue, find out about getting insurance and the needed security as well. These are all extra things you might not realize you need to pay for.

bpolensky said
