[nycbug-talk] Meeting Location

[Megan Restuccia]

Is there a Barnes & Nobles in the area, or a Kinko's... Usually you can hold
meetings at B&N just by reserving an area in advance (usually without cost),
otherwise the Kinko's conference rooms are usually a pretty decent size.

The SageSecure room is a good size though, I think those chairs took up a
lot more room than necessary.  Is there anyway to get some benches?

Hope this sparks some ideas!

I don't know how often this would work but how would everyone feel about
two 30 minute sessions? I mean well split our group in half and use the
two rooms across from each other. After 30 minutes or so take a break
and swap speakers.

How do you spell cooperation? Pessimists use
