I can't recall if I expressed a desire to attend before, so I'm doing so now. Weekday evening ("after work" type of time) works best for me. Anyone got any thoughts on location?

From: Sue Gardner sgardner@wikimedia.org Subject: Re: [Wikimedia-Canada] A few things To: Wikimedia Canada planning list wikimedia-ca@lists.wikimedia.org Recapping: I think James (Owen) wrote this list to see if anyone here wanted to take charge of organizing a meetup while I'm in Toronto. I don't think he got much/any response, which is fine and to be expected, since Canadian Wikimedians are scattered across the country rather than necessarily being clustered in or near Toronto.
So I think we should do this:
- Toronto-area Wikimedians who might be able to attend, should state
any preferences to this list, CCing James. It would be helpful, I think, for James to know whether people prefer day or evening, weekend or weekday, and if they have preferences for neighbourhood. We won't have tons of wiggle room, but we'll likely have some, and we'd try to accommodate people's preferences as much as we can.
James will figure out a location and date/time, and publish it to this list.
I'll turn up at the appointed time and place, and spend some time
with whoever's able to be there.
It won't be a formal event, just a casual meet-up since I happen to be in town. It'd be great to see anyone who can manage to come :-)
Thanks, Sue
