  • Just to double check, I assume this supersedes the regular community meet up activities?
  • My understanding is after the AGM, CT will continue with their normal meeting. JHB next meeting will be 14 May (I think).
  • Yeah, we'll do a mini meetup afterward in CT. I know that @Nandrew's got a prototype he'd like to show off ;)
  • Darn, just realized I'm going be missing this to see Metallica :/
    Will there be a breakdown of what happens?
  • Yes, I'll be keeping a brief minutes and there'll be announcements of the new committee members and any decisions made.
    Thanked by 1hellojaco
  • @creative630: You know that the concert venue changed, right? I moved my tickets to thursday ;)
  • I know... I feel quite stupid for not mentioning it to the person who got me tickets. Sadly its all organised now :/
  • I'd love to be there, but would need transport to/from UCT =/
  • I have a demo I wouldn't mind showing if there's time.
  • I'll also be at Metallica tonight :) :(
  • How do I get into the hangout? I'm not sure if I can make it tonight...

    I'll be starting the Hangout a little before the time and I'll be sure to invite you.

    If anyone wants to join the AGM via Google Hangout and doesn't already have me on GTalk my address is my username @gmail.com
  • @aodendaal I think you mean at gmail dot com ;)
  • I'm very keen to come through but I don't think I'll be able to make it. I'll try and join on hangout for as long as I can just to see what's going down!
  • @Karuji, you are correct. Fixed!

    Hangouts can only take 10 people at a time, in case that is a problem.

    I hope traffic treats me well. <_<

    Can we park inside Wits? I've had arguments with the security guards there before where they wouldn't let me in.

    [edit] Actually, it might be better for all of us at Luma if we all shared a Hangout spot. The traffic getting to Wits at that time is apparently notorious.
  • Coming in to Wits won't be a problem if you come to the Station street entrance directly. Traffic should also be clear by 18:00. It only gets bad on Empire Road and Jan Smuts Ave at around 17:00. If you come down Barry Hertzog and Solomon str to get into Jorrison you won't have an issue.

    Parking is available directly outside the Digital Arts building. Just tell the guards you are attending an event at Digital Arts, they have been notified about it.

    Hope this helps.
  • Oh ye, forgot to mention I'll be joining the hangout :)
  • Guys, please try not to rely on the hangout if you're in a city with an AGM venue! We need the limited hangout slots for people that genuinely can't make it to the event due to sheer distance.
  • Just curious, can we not open multiple hangouts? I would do one if I were there but... Well, I don't think I'll be able to, something's brewing at work.
  • Theres no way I can make this. Work issues, time conflicts. Have a great night guys
