Hi James,
I live in the Portland area now too, so it would be great to see you again
and meet anyone else who can join.
I'd also love to help with future meetups (Pandemic/time permitting). I
added this meetup to Wikipedia:Meetup/Portland
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Portland>, and we can use
that for planning future events too.
I also wanted to say thank you to Janna for organizing and sharing the
invitation.
Best,
Stephen

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.
Thank you,
James Hare

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.
