[HLUG] March HLUG meeting Wednesday night 27th March at 7.30pm

[Pete]

Hi Gang,

Sorry to miss out this month, but I could maybe follow the meeting from 
an Etherpad or twitter feed if I know this is going on.
I am at CAT doing a short course on Open Source energy monitoring

On the substance of Jools' comments I am all in favour of doing 
structured talks or presentations and we should look out for any 
possible venues. I will try around my various networks and attempt a 
list of possibles in Hereford.
I think we will always struggle to find a perfect venue given our 
demands and lack of funds! Maybe we could offer something other than 
money in exchange for use of space - for example setting up WIFI 
networking for a place which lacks this? I'm sure we could find enough 
skipware to do this as time only!
Also, perhaps we could have a discussion about which day of the week 
best suits most people as some regulars are now unable to make most 
wednesdays - and are missed.

Have a good one
Pete H@
