BayPiggies Meetings at Google

BayPiggies will hold meetings at Google on the second Thursday of each month. This wiki page is a communication tool for visitors to Google for these meetings. If you plan to attend, please add yourself to the attendee list for each applicable date.

NOTE

Our usual room in Building 43 is not available for the April 12 meeting, so we'll be convening in Pretoria Tech Talk (2nd Flr, Building 46). Building 46 is directly across the street from the main campus, at 1565 Charleston Rd.

Security

Please inform 'gate' security that you are a visitor for the BayPiggies Python Users Group Meeting. If you get a funny look, let them know that you are a guest of Leslie Hawthorn and that you will be checking in with security at Building 43 reception.

Parking

Any unoccupied parking space outside our underground garage is free game. Help yourself.

Logistics

• We will be putting up signs to help you get to Building 43 reception.
• We are making arrangements to have the meetings videotaped.
• You will be pre-registered for the event provided you add yourself to the attendee list below. Pre-registration means that a visitor badge will be available for you upon arrival and you will not need to go through the usual vistor registration process.
• If you do not pre-register, you will be able to do so on-site at reception, but it will cause some delay for you. (Note: Much better to pre-register and not show than to not pre-register.)
• Google Security will escort you from reception to Tunis.

Attendee Lists

This page gets edited frequently. A number of us scan all the wiki updates looking for spam. It would make our job a bit easier if you were logged in when you edited the page. The update email address subject would contain enough information for us to conclude that the edit was okay without actually having to open the message. -- SkipMontanaro
