Andrew,
The cafe can seat about 35 and it is likely a few will not show up, so we should be fine.
This is a social meet-up for the local wikipedians so there is no need for a formal space
where everyone can see Sue. We assume this will be an opportunity for the Wikipedians to
meet each other and have discussions about the growth of the Wikimedia projects, their
work as volunteers, and the possibility of a Wikimedia-Canada chapter.
Regards,
James

Just a reminder that the meetup will take place on
this Sunday. I'm just wondering if we could fit everyone into the cafe since
there're 37 people who have RSVPed.
