[LRUG] Looking to the future: January and February

[Murray Steele]

As usual, you've overwhelmed me with help filling a meeting at the last
minute.  Thanks everyone!

Details for January are now up:
http://lrug.org/meetings/2009/01/05/january-2009-meeting/ Yay!

Don't forget to register with Skills Matter
http://skillsmatter.com/event/ruby-on-rails/lrug-january

Cheers,

Muz

ps If some of you could keep your helpful hats on and volunteer to do a
20x20 lightning talk for the February too that would be great!  If you're
not sure what 20x20 is all about, check out the writeup/announcement from
last year http://lrug.org/meetings/2008/01/25/february-2008-meeting/ which
includes a link to Skills Matter's video of the whole thing.

>> Hi all,
>>>
>>> As mentioned last night I was toying with giving people a break from the
>>> hard labour of preparing talks for the January meeting and just having a pub
>>> meet.  However, I got enough offers to do a talk that I think we'll go ahead
>>> with a normal meeting.  It'll be on the 12th January, so get it in your
>>> diaries.  If you did grab me yesterday and offer up a talk for Jan (or
>>> didn't but have a talk you'd like to give) please reply to this message and
>>> we'll choose a couple to put on.  I probably want to get this sorted in the
>>> next couple of weeks to give everyone enough notice that they're not
>>> preparing their talks at the last moment (unless that's what they choose to
>>> do).
>>>
>>> Anyway, looking forward beyond January to the February meeting, I thought
>>> (after prompting from Roland) that it would be fun to do another Lightning
>>> talk evening.  We did this last February (
>>> http://lrug.org/meetings/2008/01/25/february-2008-meeting/ for details,
>>> including a link to the video) and it worked really well.  So well in fact
>>> that we'll stick to the same format; 20 slides, 20 seconds each, auto
>>> transitioning to keep you to your time limit.  To fill up the evening we'd
>>> need at least 6 speakers but we could accommodate about 8 or 9 without the
>>> evening feeling too full.  So, get your lightning talk hats on and start
>>> volunteering yourselves.
