Melbourne Meetup Next: It was suggested that the next meetup be in May. A bbq was considered, but as it can be a little cool in May it may be more prudent to have it inside. Mark Elliott said the Centre for Ideas should be OK if required. - Cuddy Wifter Which is why I suggested 'wait until the end of the year' before we had a BBQ. After we've had meetings in the Centre for Ideas all year, being in the Mornington Peninsula would make a nice change. What about country meetings? Like in Geelong or Ballarat or Bendigo? I agree about having the thing inside as May can be a little cool. I wouldn't want to catch a cold from a fellow Wikipedian. --EuropracBHIT 03:24, 22 March 2006 (UTC). I will be overseas 7 to 21 May, and in Canberra for the following two weeks. So only the first Tuesday will work for me. Adam 10:32, 23 April 2006 (UTC) I might also be overseas for most of May, though it's tentative at the moment (conference organisers messing around combined with the not knowing exactly when my niece or nephew is going to be born in England). Angela. 02:25, 25 April 2006 (UTC) I hope the child gets born soon. Who has done a study on Wikibabies? --03:48, 25 April 2006 (UTC). (watch) Last: 18 February 2023
