Ok, I'll propose to meet at the Royal Oak.  I'll suggest the
Wellington/Hinton location because there seem to be more people in the
west end.  (I can see a Royal Oak from my home office here, but I'm east
of parliament...)

That said, if anyone wishes to arrange a physical get together with others,
then they can do that, and join the rest of us on the jitsi meeting.
I won't have any mobile device with me.

RGB: Just to be unambiguous here. Are you saying
a) you're leaving your phone at home? or
b) that when you booked the venue, you were unable to ascertain whether there was a usable internet connection for connecting to a jitsi meeting? or
c) you won't be joining the jitsi meeting? or
d) something else I have not been able to imagine?

Bottom line, should our assumption be that we cannot rely on your contributing to a jitsi discussion about CentOS?

Katie: Will you be joining the jitsi meeting to contribute your piece? This is so I know how much needs doing to prepare back up topics, JIC.

Thanks

Tug

    As an employee of the organization responsible for that disto, I may
    have some opinions about the subject...?? ;-) It was a bit messy...
