All,

I have confirmation that we have a room at the Wikimedia Foundation this Wednedsay evening at 6:00pm. The office is at 149 New Montgomery Street. I'm not sure how late the front desk is open, so in case the security guard leaves at 6:00, you might want to arrive a few minutes early; or if you can't get in, feel free to text or call me at 503-383-9454.

George: Any way I can assist in getting to the office? I don't have a car, but if a walking companion would make it easier I'd be happy to meet you ahead of time.

J: No strong idea about scope or length of time; we just want to chat about the idea of having a recurring monthly get-together, brainstorm ideas, and hang out. Probably an hour or two.

Merrilee, Asaf, Neil: Glad to know you're interested! We'll definitely report back to the list. I'm pretty sure we will be planning the first meeting for a Wednesday in late April; if there are strong preferences, please make them known!

-Pete

Hello everyone and Pete!

I love the wikisalon idea.  I want to participate, contribute, build community and learn/relearn editing skills.  Once set up, I will also promote to my many communities and lists.

I would like to offer Swan's Market Cohousing (http://www.swansway.com), a community I am a founding resident of as a possible Wednesday East Bay location. Not necessarily every month though. Meets all the other requirements :)  I also have access to all the Port Workspaces - http://portworkspaces.com - in case that might be of interest.  Money might be needed with them though, not sure. 

I cannot make the 3/30 planning meeting. Please keep me posted!

Thanks again

Neil
