Is it now agreed that the London Wikimeet will be the time to celebrate four years of Wikimedia UK (5th November 2008)?
WIKIMEDIA U.K. Company No. 06741827
Are there any funds to support a special meetup (Jon)? Is the current default venue suitable?
There has been some discussion on the meetup page...

OK. Mike, what say you?
Sounds good, but please can you ask me via a microgrant application, with a budget request and breakdown? http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Microgrants
Thanks, Mike P.S. at some point soon, I'll get a proper Grants Committee set up so this stops being 'ask mike'... ;-)
Well, let's brainstorm this. Hasina, the intern, will be taking the lead from the office side of things (with help from the rest of us as needed). What do we want? Presumably a cake would be a good start.

Hi,
I was just wondering if I need to wait for this budget before I go ahead and make the booking at the Penderel's Oak and order a cake.

If we're going with Penderal's Oak, then I don't think there is a charge for the function room (someone will correct me if I'm wrong). There is a charge for cake, unless someone wants to bake it themselves (and donate the ingredients and energy), so that will need approval (but just from Mike, not the whole board, I think - it's just a microgrant not a whole new budget item).

Hello,
Just to keep you updated the Penderal's Oak has been booked for the 11th November. Just the cake now :)

Great, thanks! You should probably call them a couple of days before to confirm, since they haven't managed to forget such bookings in the past.

Can I assume that the booking is for the downstairs room?

Hi, Sorry for the late reply. The booking has been made for the downstairs area. I will also leave a note before I leave to the office, to call before The Penderal's Oak meet up to make sure they are still aware of the booking. On 4 October 2012 17:00, Gordon Joly gordon.joly@pobox.com wrote:

So..... downstairs room booked from 1pm onwards, to closing time, Sunday 11th November?
And the cake?

The downstairs area has been booked for 1pm onwards, till closing time on the day. I am still waiting for news on the budget before I order a cake.
