Not sure of a specific one, but seems like a reasonable idea. 17:18:50 Hunt library comes to mind 17:18:50 One of my outstanding action items is start a discussion (first on steering@) about hack night logistics and improvements 17:18:52 Low attendance is a big part I think. It takes the burden off of bandwidth and our host there. 17:19:03 jeremyhwllc: problem is port-limited wifi 17:19:16 It was also pointed out that Bandwidth isn't a convenient "just stop by for a bit" kind of place. 17:19:17 we need limited or no port blockages 17:19:56 I'm still willing to host at Splat, but they've been booked the past few times (we might have to move the data) 17:19:59 s/data/date/ 17:20:10 jackhill: gotcha - thanks for checking 17:20:22 thanks go to eronel 17:20:36 you could also look into coffee shops around splat as alternative spots 17:20:42 aah - thank you, eronel :) 17:20:47 there is a new hackerspace going up near holly springs per Scott Hall 17:21:16 Coo, but that seems off the beaten path… 17:21:31 do we want to try to keep it between downtown durham and downtown(ish) raleigh, or venture into rtp or other areas? 17:21:52 It seems like we might want to experiment with different locations. 17:22:01 And probably ask the regulars what they think. 17:22:06 starbucks on lake boone has a meeting room. building used to be a bank 17:22:09 good idea, mhrivnak 17:22:56 By regulars, you mean qqx? :) 17:22:59 jeremyhwllc: that might work pretty well 17:23:02 lol 17:23:11 yeah, eronel :) 17:23:53 RTP Frontier is a potentially good option 17:24:03 Is that free? 17:24:04 haven't heard of that one 17:24:10 ^ that 17:24:29 yes last I heard 17:24:39 jeremyhwllc: do you know if the lake boone starbucks allows you to reserve their conf rm? 17:25:33 the frontier says the hours are 9-5 17:26:29 so let's ask folks for suggestions, and see if we can come up with some as well 17:26:48 sounds good to me 17:27:15 are we okay with not having a regular location? 17:27:24 (if we want to just keep moving around?) 17:27:27 depending on how many ideas come up, we can maybe think about it being a 'floating' event - so we may end up with different folks depending on where it's held from month to month 17:27:28 Looks as if Frontier is also not open on the weekends. 17:27:30 lol 17:27:37 jackhill: yeah... that :) 17:27:47 I'm okay with its moving around. 17:27:51 never tried reserving at starbucks. the benifit or RTp Frontier building 800 there is opportunity to mingle with other techies in the area. bitcoin meetups are there. they rent coworking space there but lobby big area is free to public (to attract talent/ coworking tenants) 17:28:11 jeremyhwllc: do you know if they allow evening meetings? 17:28:22 it sounds like you're saying yes, i just didn't see that on their site 17:29:05 most of the meetups there have been 7-9pm. there is a reservation process. 17:29:14 ah.. excellent 17:29:25 ok, unless you have contacts there i can reach out 17:29:53 why don't i do that... 17:30:03 I will reach out to Jameson Lopp the Tri Bitcoin Meetup organizer to get details on process 17:30:13 or that :) 17:30:35 #action jeremyhwllc call Jameson Lopp re: rtp frontier reservation process 17:30:37 thank you! 17:30:43 ok, i have one item to get to... 17:30:48 #topic General Business 17:31:00 we're at time, just wanted to ask about nominations 17:31:17 The power outage at metametrics didn't actually happen last weekend, so they just turned moya back on a couple hours later. 17:31:33 They'll likely reschedule, so we'll just stay on alert for that. 17:31:36 did anyone mention wanting to run last week? 17:31:43 mhrivnak: good to know, thank you 17:31:44 not to me 17:31:49 nor to me 17:32:10 ok 17:32:31 mhrivnak and jeremyhwllc - you're still running, correct? 17:32:36 i've decided to run again 17:32:41 yay 17:32:46 cool :) 17:32:51 eronel and jackhill - you're still retiring? 17:32:56 I am. 17:33:00 me too 17:33:01 note - we should cross promote May Ansible talk to these groups: ncsa , trypython, ansibulls, tridevops 17:33:25 #note we should cross promote May Ansible talk to these groups: ncsa , trypython, ansibulls, tridevops 17:33:28 jeremyhwllc: noted! 17:33:31 jeremyhwllc: excellent point 17:33:35 I do plan to run 17:33:44 hrm... didn't know about the 'note' cmd 17:33:50 I think #note it is a thing.
