Attendees: Ben S, Ben M

1. June meeting recap

  • good turnout
  • Scott's talk was great
    • perhaps we could provide links to other places people could create accounts - Hack5 server down
  • few newbies
  • liked the sections in the Gnews
  • no access until 6:05pm, bit of a pain
  • didn't have time to set up streaming
  • audio worked well - does take a bit of work to post-process due to background hum
  • handed off nametags to Tatiana, worked

3. Alternate venue?

  • really need two ctte members with access
  • Ben M. mentioned that city library may have low cost meeting spaces
  • Electron Workshop is a possibility, but Ben S. concerned about location
  • York Butter Factory on King Street - need someone with access/membership?
  • maybe we just try somewhere else for October

4. Workshop brainstorming:

  • talked through the format, registration and various risks

Next actions:

  1. lock in venue - should be confirmed with Melbourne Uni in next few days
  2. approach mentors
  3. announce the event

5. Having two topics to promote works well

  • handy if someone has to pull out
  • can mix more/less technical
  • might make it easier to atract a wider range of people
