Idea: Between Meetings Online Social
David A. Harding
CHLUG now meets once every other month. I propose that, on the month
without a meeting, we get together in an online chatroom and socialise.
The meeting would start around 19:05 with introductions. Then we'd talk
about any interesting projects we're working on and let the conversation
evolve from there.
I think the best meeting venue is the IRC chatroom #chlug on
irc.freenode.net. We've occasionally used that room in the past. The
chatroom is ours to use anytime we want, for as long as we want, and at
no charge.
Since we aren't going to get kicked out for staying late, I suggest we
start the meeting at 20:00. The meeting will officially end an hour
later at 21:00, but anyone who wants to stay longer, can. (After a
Ubuntu LoCo meeting once, Bryan, Christina, Joe, and I once continued
chatting until nearly 4 O'Clock the next morning.)
Also, since we don't need to schedule the room, I'm starting a poll (URL
below) to pick the best date. You can pick from all of the first seven
days of May. Like a regular meeting, everyone is welcome to attend, and
I actively invite the members of other local LUGs.

I think that's it. If you have questions or concerns, ask them now.
Otherwise, I look forward to chatting with you next month.
Thanks,
