Well, some people might be available, and it’s good to reach out to mailing lists like this just in case. I will be attending, and if anyone else in the Portland area is available, I hope to see you there too. If not, we will have another meetup sometime, at a more convenient time. There is no good reason to be unfriendly here.

Hello all,
Short notice, but the Wikimedia Foundation's CPTO, Selena Deckelmann, will be hosting a gathering for local staff and community this Thursday.
Location: Rose City Book Pub, 1329 NE Fremont St, Portland, OR 97212 Day and time: September 29, 3-5:30pm
Please let me know if you're interested in attending. :)
Well, yes, this is short notice if you wanted to reach out to the community, especially since these hours fall during the usual business hours & would require taking off time from work. And while I normally leap at any excuse to get away from work, I doubt I could get time off on such short notice.
BTW, I suspect I'm the only subscriber on the Wikimedia Cascadia list who lives in the Portland area. (It's been a while since we had a meetup down here, so it's possible. Heck, it's been awhile since I've seen an email from the mailing list.) Most of the group is based in the Seattle area, so I don't know who -- if anyone -- from the community will show up. And although it was over 10 years ago, last time I met with a C-level from the Foundation I wasn't impressed.
