SPUG: Full details for Bellevue daytime meeting and some details for Seattle evening meeting (please comment on the time)

[Duane Blanchard]

Happy Monday to you all,

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Here are the details for the
Bellevue daytime meeting...

Who: SPUGgers

What: Informal, probably non-technical meeting to get to know each
other and discuss what each other is working on. And of course to eat great BBQ.

Where:
Dixie's BBQ
(425) 828-2460
11522 Northup Way
Bellevue, WA 98004
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=11522+Northup+Way+Bellevue,+WA+98004&iwloc=A&hl=en

When: Wednesday, December 14, 12:00 noon

Why: Mainly for fun, but also to investigate how much interest there
is in a regular daytime meeting in Bellevue (understanding that
mid-December is not convenient for everyone).

********************************
Details for the Seattle evening meeting, as they currently stand...

Who: SPUGgers

What: Informal, more technical meeting to get to know each other and
discuss what each other is working on. I'll be presenting either on
some Perl shortcuts that would be helpful for newbies to
see/understand, or on building a simple host/client network
application.

Where:

16th floor of the Rainier Tower

(The building that looks like it has suffered severe erosion, been
attacked by a giant beaver, etc.  It is located between 4th and 5th,
and Union and University.  There is parking in the building (but I
don't know how much it costs), in nearby garages, and a (very) little
on neighboring streets.) Food and drinks are fine to bring.  We have a
good supply of soft drinks, juice, coffee, tea, etc.

When: Tuesday, December 20th, (proposed 5:00 p.m., open for comment)

Why: Also for fun, but mainly to exchange knowledge and revitalize the
community.

The final decision on the time for the Seattle meeting will be
announced on Wednesday this week, be sure to chime in if you care one
way or another.
