That was my logic....I find it hard to believe that everyone wants a formal
educational experience EVERY single meetup...anyone could correct me if I am
wrong on that assumption, maybe I am, but thats why I think we should go
casual, and during these casual meetings, line up formal presentations about
various topics for the future (should the members see it worth while to do
so)...then we can cross the bridge of finding a location for that formal
meetup when we come to it...
Also I think its important to look at history, I havent been coming long,
but I get the impression that the culture of the group at its current state
is casual...let history speak to us..maybe we should let that hold weight in
making these kinds of decisions. The group may change later and become more
formal every single meeting, but we can't say that is the current state now
nor could we say that is what everyone wants...formal meetings every single
time, (at least I can't, but then again I could be wrong and Im sure someone
will address that).
I still say lets stick to the casual place (less expensive) and go from
there. Should it develop into formalized meetups, cool, if not, thats cool
too...
