Becksguy (talk) 19:12, 14 November 2011 (UTC) — The Symposium has always been good to us, giving us the back room and a discount for cash. I'm still on crutches so the stairs will be a problem, but otherwise I'm in for another flaming cheese evening.[reply]

Possible attendees[edit]

Any agendas? (attendance not contingent upon this) - Theornamentalist (talk) 00:54, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Probably in a more informal way, yes. We can have some discussions of NYC cultural/educational outreach events, and also the recent filing to obtain nonprofit status for the Wikimedia NYC chapter.--Pharos (talk) 06:51, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'll be busy in Brooklyn until 5, but will see how fast the subways run -- kosboot (talk) 23:46, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, coming later is fine, we'll be there for awhile.--Pharos (talk) 06:01, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'll try to attend. AstroCog (talk) 13:31, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
