Hm, good idea. But, as you say, it might onvolve delaying any meeting until
college term-time. It's definitely an option for meetings after this one,
though. Thanks!

Ideally, the first one would be held in a meeting room in someone's workplace,
since dedicated meeting rooms seem to be good places for tech talks (and I
haven't looked at hiring meeting rooms yet, I hear some places do it, at a
rate of about 20e per hour, which would involve people contributing, or me
sucking up the costs, both of which I'd rather not do. It's gonna be hard
enough to get people to come along :))
