...He is free and in SF on Saturday only. What do people think?

This weekend is also Wondercon so some locals might have other plans. What about the first Saturday in March? This will give time to find just the right place and get it into people's schedules. *Marti On Feb 18, 2008 5:07 PM, Cary Bass <cbass(a)wikimedia.org> wrote: _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-SF mailing list Wikimedia-SF(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-sf

Yes, ok. Any ideas for where to go??? I would love to meet up for lunch with a handful of people tommorow. Casual setting, quiet, someplace that we could do a little filming (maybe get some of those laptop action shots that computer documentaries always seem to have!) I should be available late morning -- early afternoon tommorow (I have an evening commitment).

Cool! Alas, I am a little clueless as to good places to go. Any ideas, anyone?

Mediterranean sounds great! Brion and I are pretty much up for anything. I imagine a price range would be in the $10-$15 for food and drink per person? We've been pretty homebound since I broke my foot in mid January. Cary - maybe we can carpool it? Anyone a member of Mechanics' Institute Library? I do believe that one of the benefits of membership is to have access to conference rooms for meetings. Not sure if there is a fee involved. Do any of the public libraries offer meeting rooms for events like this? I'll see what I can dig up on line for future reference.

<http://www.maxsworld.com/maxs/locations.php?Id=11> Someone suggested Max's Opera Cafe on Van Ness, maybe good for a group of our size. I would suggest early noonish, notably because Phoebe can't be around much later than that. Cary phoebe ayers wrote: wrote: anything.

I think the Internet Archive is a good idea. Where is it?

Hi everyone, Hope you don't mind me barging in in the group. Thank you for all the efforts to come our way for a tv-shoot tomorrow. For our director Ice van Veelen I was already trying to get into SFPL but there are heavy filming restrictions. I have now asked Sherri Eng of Library PR if the Meetings Rooms are a possibility. Will let you know as soon as I hear back from her.

We also might be able to get in on their events calendar for more exposure and who knows where that could lead eh?

Well, since the Wikimedia Foundation is based right in SF now, perhaps you can meet there.
