Hi All,

My plan for our meetings has been to have them on the last Thursday of each
month (and we take June off because of YAPC/TPC, and we move the December
meeting forward, when we have our social earlier in the month -- yes, there
are exceptions everywhere.)

I was pretty sure I had set up our July meeting to be the last Thursday of
the month (July 29), but it's been pointed out that meetup.com has July 22.
This is, no doubt, my fault. :/

I currently have nothing planned, and no speaker scheduled for either the
22nd or the 29th. Please reply to this message with your choice:

1. 22nd! Let's meet soon!
2. 29th. I can wait.

And also,

A. I can present something!
B. I have no ideas (brilliant or otherwise) to present.
C. Let's meet anyway and chat about stuff we saw at TPC/ read on Slashdot/
heard on the streetcar.

A tie will favour the date that's already advertised on meetup.com (Past
Alex, what were you thinking?) .. let me know your thoughts by Monday.
Thanks!

Alex

Hi All,

OK -- since the July 22 date is plastered all over the meetup.com page,
let's have our meeting this Thursday and talk about cool stuff -- perhaps
something you saw during TPC last month. And clearly, I need a remedial
course on reading calendars. Thanks to Fulko for giving me the heads up.

See you all on Thursday (three days time!)

Alex

Subject: [tpm] See you at the August meeting ..
Message-ID: <CANgc-ay6+kuSs=6PeaA+CZmkfYd2xRvUxZWt0BAVAqze7XrqFQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi All,

So Fulko and I had a nice chat at tonight's meeting, which was sparsely
attended. While we talked, I cancelled the July 29th meeting
that's now redundant.

We'll have a proper meeting on August 26, which will be both the fourth
Thursday (thanks meetup.com) and the last Thursday (as is usual and
customary for TPM). If anyone thinks they'll have a talk ready by then,
shoot me a note and I'll publicize it.

Until then, stay safe, and enjoy the summer weather. :)

Alex

PS Under Fulko's watchful eyes, I made sure the September meeting is also
correctly scheduled for the *last* Thursday. I'll deal with October later.
Promise.
