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!
