Wow. Roughly 60 in attendance and only 11 evals. Predictably, the
lunch debacle was noted seriously a couple of times. I totally screwed
things up there. My apologies. I'll try to get things lined up
better next month. The price was right, but the location not as
convenient as I thought it was in my head. Perhaps if we have someone
from Hertz pick it up on the way we'll be better set there. We'll see.<br>
<br>
Larger room: Working on it.<br>
Night meeting: Nobody was coming.<br>
Door prize feedback: Looks like Brian's Think Geek idea might be a hit.
Not sure about the game idea, as not everyone has a PS3, 360, or Wii,
etc. Someone wants a cheeseburger. He can haz cheezburger!<br>
Better grammar: Who? Where?<br>
<br>
Interesting and varied feedback. It's always a mixed bag, isn't it? :)<br>
<br>
Any early thoughts on a presenter for next month? I have some I'd like to
do, but none of them have been put together yet (JS talk proposed for J1,
JSF2,...). With enough warning, I could probably get something put
together. Is there anyone that's been asking to present? Has
something ready? :)<br>
