| === What others do === The next few lines were added by EllisMorgan on 2 February 2009, is this the right place to ask these questions? A group of about 15 (so far) APL users have started meeting once a month or so in London at the Edgar Wallace pub in the afternoon. The third meeting was held on Friday 30 January 2009 and some notes about it have been posted to the BAA London !GoogleGroup, see http://groups.google.com/group/baa-london The next meeting will focus on "APL and Education" and the arrangements will be published soon. I think the aims, records and announcements of these meetings would be more manageable if they were kept here, perhaps with the archive of past meetings being kept at BAA London as files. One advantage would be that we could jointly edit the documents without the "full audit" style of additional comments posted to to threads in groups. We could have three pages here BAALondonMeetings, BAALondonNextMeeting, BAALondonLastMeeting. Does this sound like a good idea? I am posting pointers to the BAA London group here, at CLA (computer.language.apl !NewsGroup), and at the Dyalog Users Group. Are there other places I should consider? This discussion moved to [[BAALondon|BAA London]]. 2009-03-03 23.18.33 ---- |

Running BAA London
Introduction
RunningBAALondon is the page to use if you want to discuss what the BAA London group should do and how it should do it. It is a separate page so that people who just want to find out what the group does, with a view to coming to a meeting, do not have to bother themselves with all this.
Changing this page
As a member of the BAA London discussion group you are a co-owner of this page and can change it when you like. Views that you expect to provoke much discussion might go better at our GoogleGroup, perhaps with a pointer to the thread here. Please leave a comment in the "edit comment field" as you make changes.
A typical Meeting
When we are well organised actual details for the next meeting are in BaaLondon.
Usual venue
The Edgar Wallace, 40 Essex Street,London WC2R 3JF click here for full venue details. There are usually two or three guest beers available.
Usual Date
We have have recently changed from the last Friday of the month to a Friday earlier in the month. We hope this will be quieter.
Typical Agenda
As far as something that has only happened only a few times can have a norm we usually: Meet downstairs between 2 and 3pm; move upstairs about 3pm; either gather together for a themed meeting maybe using the large screen; or split into smaller groups around computers connected via the WIFI; around 4:30pm it becomes more difficult to hold a single meeting; so we split into smaller groups some going downstairs again. By the start of the meeting we should know who is going to record the meeting, by the end we should know what is going to happen at the next meeting.
What others do
See Community/UserGroups for a list of user groups held in the WIKI
Ellis - I run a monthly group here in New York City for J called NYCJUG (NYC J-Users Group): see http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/NYCJUG to see how we use the J wiki to post notices and meeting notes. Also, it wouldn't hurt to send a message to general@jsoftware.com to ask about posting meeting notices there (as long as you're not worried about possible infection.)
Also, you might want to list on Gary's Guide: http://www.garysguide.org/ and any other general, technical lists for your area of which you may be aware.
Good luck!
