IRC could be worth a go but textual forms can be confusing. I
teach/lecture a lot in both voice and textual form and it takes
tighter control for text. Not impossible but has its problems.<br>

Yes. I never went to any of those but I think they were OK.<br>

Quite agree there. You have a point. I know we tried some forms but
the scale is the key, some of them failed when more came in. I will
take a look at that tech, what did you think of it?<br>

<br>
Yes we do have high requirements. When I can get my act together at
work we can make use of those offices with lots of room, although
lacking projector. <br>

<div bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> Yes it's a struggle at
the moment finding venues that are free. Dan is looking at one
for me, I had thought Maidstone Library were out of the
running but suddenly I've heard from them after a month or so
and they can now do it for free I think. They want me to visit
to discuss but seeing I'm in east Kent and they wanted to do
this during the working week that is not going to happen. I
need to sort out one Saturday instead to go up to see them so
that may be in the next month or so as I don't tend to go that
part of the county often.<br>
<br>
Other than that no other venue options so no meets can be
planned until we have some. :-(<br>
<br>
Will keep my ear to the ground. Hopefully might get a chance
to network over this weekend as I'm mentoring for work's EPIK
coding weekend so if I can find any other locations then I
will give them a go.<br>
