Hey Gang! We are going to be at Technopia tonight at 7PM! Address: 44 Portland St, Worcester, MA 01608 Virtual Address: https://meet.jit.si/WlugMA Topic(s): Keyboards, RedHat not being cool, etc. As usual we'll be going out for dinner after the meeting (we'll figure it out there) I don't know the food/drink policy at Technopia so I'll hold off on bringing that stuff until I know better. See you there!!! Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Re: Where to hold meetings..

by Kevin Harrington

I would like to also suggest Technocopia! http://technocopia.org/ We would love to have the WLUG, and the only reason i haven't attended in a while is because Thursday at 7 is our open house night. I would take responsibility for "booking" the space, as a member I am allowed to host club event's in the space with non-menbers so long as I am there to let everyone in and close up on the way out. I still may not be able to attend every meeting, as I give tours of Technocopia, I do look forward to finally being able to at least pop in and out between tours!

Cara, That would be awesome. It seems that WPI is the most central for everybody. Could we get something booked for Tomorrow or are we cutting it too close? Thanks, Tim.
