I'm hoping this'll become a monthly or bi-monthly gathering, and I'm hoping we'll adjourn to the pub after the first 2 hours for a less formal second 2 ;-)

Turns out Jeff can't make it - I've sent a message to everyone asking for presentation ideas - please either add them here or email me!

Hi there, looking forward to this event. After a quick chat with Rob, I blogged about it here on the CiviCRM website http://civicrm.org/node/357. See you there!

I'm the Drupal dude @ Oxfam. I'd love to be with you but we're knee-deep in Drupal before launching our new site. Just not going to be able to make it. Nuts.
Really looking forward to meeting you, Rob, and other Drupal4NGO junkies. Next time.

Would it be possible for someone to record the main proceedings? I'd love to come, but it's a long train journey (two hours each way) from here for a two-hour meeting...
Or broadcast it via Skype?

I won't be able to broadcast it via Skype, unfortunately - next time :-)

Thanks for the dial-in deets, annoyingly I'm working this evening as I'd love to come to this as well. If anyone does any prep before the meeting or makes any notes I'd be really keen to hear from you.

Great event. Thanks for organising it, Rob. Thanks to Amnesty for hosting it too. Lovely venue.
Really great to meet up with everyone - spent hours chatting with people but didn't get a chance to meet everyone. Hopefully see you all at the next event.

I would like to echo Nic's message. Thanks to Rob and Amnesty, I think we have the start of a beautiful thing :-)

Great event, I'll be there. But only two hours?! Don't we need four, especially if Jeff is coming.
