G+ hangout?

Hi everybody,

One of the things that surprised me about being on the board is that
board meetings are actually kind of fun. What we discuss is often
dull, but talking to people live and putting faces to the names you
see on this list is pretty neat.

I thought it might be pleasant and productive to have a broader
community meeting where we can have a more free-form conversation.
With Squeak 4.4 nearing release, I'd like to talk about ideas for 4.5,
and hear about community projects—what are people doing with Squeak?

Since we're spread out all over the world, there's probably no ideal
time for this sort of thing, so arbitrarily I propose Thursday, 30
August at 10:00 AM Pacific Daylight Time, for the first Squeak
community hangout:

http://timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?p1=256&p1=256&iso=20120830T10&msg=Squeak%20Hangout&sort=0

Anybody want to join me?

Colin

That's a great idea, but you should be aware that a number of people will be at the ESUG 2012 conference in Gent during
that time.
Don't know whether the facilities at the conference venue would allow some to attend from ESUG and give some live
impressions :-)

Cheers,
Hans-Martin

True. I'm not too worried about that, though. I imagine doing a few of
these meetings, so anyone at ESUG shouldn't worry about missing it.
They can always attend another meeting.

Of course, if somebody wants to give us a live report from Gent, that
would be cool too!

You need a google account, and when Colin posts the event invitation (which he should probably do soon) you can just click that on his Google+ page:

Ok, the event is posted. I specifically invited a bunch of Squeakers
that are in my circles, but the event is public so anyone can join.
