wanted to give kwlug-disc members a heads up. For the next few months<br>
(and maybe longer) we will be moving the KWLUG in-person meeting<br>
location to the Davis Centre Library at the University of Waterloo<br>
(instead of the Dana Porter library, where we were meeting before).<br>
I wrote up the new meeting location here: <a href="https://kwlug.org/node/1455" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://kwlug.org/node/1455</a><br>
<br>
Thanks to Lori for helping get our meeting room changed (and for<br>
hosting us at UW). <br>
<br>
The Dana Porter library location was not bad, but that library now<br>
closes at 9pm, which makes timing of our meetings awkward. There were<br>
a bunch of ways we could have resolved this (starting earlier,<br>
shortening the meeting time, scheduling only one topic per meeting,<br>
moving to Builders Club) but as an unelected autocrat who has gone<br>
mad with power I figured this change would be the least headachy. If<br>
all goes well this room change will work out okay for the LUG; if it<br>
is a disaster then maybe (hopefully?) I will be overthrown in a<br>
military coup. <br>
<br>
Questions for the adoring masses:<br>
<br>
- Are the directions to the new space clear enough?<br>
- I know that parking has been an issue at UW. Have there been<br>
in-person attendees who have been driving there? Does this room<br>
change make your parking situation better or worse?<br>
- What other comments about the in-person meeting space(s) do you<br>
have?<br>
<br>
Thank you for your attention to this matter!!<br>
<br>
- Paul<br>
