Hey All,
Are there any events such as this planned for Pretoria/Centurion? Is there the possibility of joining in remotely?
Hi Schalk,
There are no events currently planned for the Johannesberg/Pretoria/Centurion area. Keep a look out on this mailing list though for when they do happen in the coming months.
Alternatively chapter members are also free, indeed encouraged, to organise such events in their local areas and let people know about them on this mailing list. You can set a theme for them (like writing articles on South African authors for example) or just keep them open and general where people are free to work on what ever they like such as this upcoming event in Cape Town. Just please keep us informed of them.
As for joining remotely, you are welcome to join us remotely via Google Hangout. I can send you an invite to it if you would like? I am toying with the idea of doing a live Youtube steam but that might be fore the future. I will let everyone know though if that changes.
Regards,
Douglas.

Thanks a lot for the reply Douglas. I will keep an eye open, and think about some ideas for putting one together. With regards to the Hangouts link, please do share the invite/link.
