Just to bump this...
I'm sorting out my Schedule for November; is this definitely planned to go ahead?
Is it time to start promoting it more (two months lead in is just enough to stir up some attendance I suspect).

Hi Tom, I'm already in talks with some people at the Skiff discussing us using it :) Glad you know about it as well! Designer wise, I don't see why not? I'm sure there are plenty of design related bugs out there and other things they can do... -- Lewis Cawte On 26 August 2011 17:19, Tom Morris <tom@tommorris.org <mailto:tom@tommorris.org>> wrote: On Fri, Aug 26, 2011 at 10:41, Thomas Morton <morton.thomas@googlemail.com <mailto:morton.thomas@googlemail.com>> wrote: > I don't know if Brighton has a Linux User Group?

They have hosted BarCamp for 100+ people, but have nice small rooms and office space for hacking. -- Tom Morris <http://tommorris.org/> _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediauk-l@wikimedia.org <mailto:wikimediauk-l@wikimedia.org> http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediauk-l@wikimedia.org <mailto:wikimediauk-l@wikimedia.org> http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org

It should be going ahead then, and if the event does go ahead, it'll be on that date, but I can't seem to get a response from the Skiff anymore...
Advertising wise, let me get a reply from the skiff first... I was rather suprised to see a note on the Brighton hackathon in the latest Wiki Signpost... :(
