London 2.0 rc2 is on for tonight. I hope to see a bunch of you there.
We didn't get a room, I'm afraid. It's all my fault - Sam didn't book a room because he though I would have done so. I didn't book a room 'cos I had been thinking of another venue, so when Sam's post mentioned The Bank of England, I assumed that he'd booked the room. Sigh. Sorry about that. Piss up in a brewery, anyone?
Anyway, I'm hoping for a bunch of nerds of many colours - Python, Ruby, Java, Django, Turbogears, Rails, you know the kind of thing.
What I'm not expecting is many women. One or two - Katherine and perhaps Sarah - but London tech meetups suffer from the same malaise as the IT industry in general; a woeful gender imbalance. I'm not sure what, if anything, can be done about it, but Sarah is having a go by organising the Geek Girl Dinners. Do get along if the rules allow - and pass on the news to the nerdy women of your acqainance.
How was it? I wanted to make this and the last one, but they've managed to correspond nicely to days I'm completely exhausted.
