Hello FGS,
In our last meeting, we discussed having our Nov event on a Saturday afternoon (Nov 17th?) in order to introduce a FGS overview and demo of Linux to the community. In addition we would hold the next meeting on the tail end of the day. The tech lab room is available.
Can someone confirm that this is a go?
Thanks,
Jon
Hey Everybody,
Reminder: It's time for our monthly Free Geek Seattle meeting. Everyone is
welcome. This month, our quarterly board meeting will also be part of the general meeting. We'll be meeting at Third Place Commons in Lake Forest
Park. It's by Third Place Books on the top floor. We'll put two or more tables
together by the electrical outlets in the main open area. Wifi is
provided by King County Library System. We'll meet from 18:30 till
21:00, or later (6:30pm till 9pm in American time).
One thing we should discuss further is where to have our monthly meetings, and our physical location once we can establish that. I propose that we finish deciding where to have our monthly meetings at least two weeks in advance of each meeting, so that our planning goes smoothly & reminder announcements can go out on time.
Third Place Commons address: 17171 Bothell Way NE , Lake Forest Park,
WA 98155 (Upper Level of Lake Forest Park Towne Centre)
Monday, 10th September, 2012 at 18:30.
See ya there,
Elcaset

Hi Mark, Great that you can be there!
Chad/Andrew et al: are you game so that the public invitation can go out?
It's at the community center in SE Seattle.
I suggest bring some live CD's on USB to enable the few machines in there with some sample env that people can test drive. Donations and requests for grants/volunteer can be requested.
Great! I will finalize the invite with details this weekend.

I agree that a Meetup would be a much more user accessible page. I have been trying to find you guys FOREVER and there have already been numerous cryptoparties I missed. Sadface.I DO have a really old, grandfathered meetup account that allows me to create two communities (I think because I ran one before?). With input, I'd volunteer to admin the meetup page -- I'm a decent designer married to an excellent designer, so we could probably make the best of the templates, too. Let me know if moving cryptoparty seattle to meetup on my account is something the group would like to do. I'll try to make the meeting to introduce myself.awesome.heather@honeyonmyhead
Hi Elcaset,
It would be fine to hold it there till 530pm also. I may need to step out earlier after I get my updates to the team.
Thanks,
Jon

Hi Chris,
I haven't experienced a cryptoparty yet. What is the attendance and agenda like?
We have our small tech and media ctr at the community center that I would offer up as a meetup location for the next one, with FGS hosting. We can discuss this tomorrow at the FGS meeting.
Thanks,
Jon
P.S. - Heather, thank you for offering to host a meetup page. I think it would be great that this be primarily a FGS MU page with cryptoparty as one of the sponsored meetings that FGS hosts periodically (as a topic) to keep the continuity. It would certainly add more traction to the general public.
Hi Mark: Sorry we will miss you. Maybe next mtg.
Chad: let me know who will present the overview at today's meeting, when you arrive at the center.
Thanks,
Jon
