Board Games
AMK wants to run a 2- or 3-hour session where people can show up and play a variety of board games such as [http://www.boardgamegeek.com/viewitem.php3?gameid=822 Carcassonne], [http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/9675 La Strada], etc.
- What games would you like to see?
- What games can you bring?
Damn, and here I was leaning towards going to EuroPython next year, and you go and introduce board games into the mix -- RichardJones
Dinner
There should be some place for people to meet up for dinner; without that someone without dinner plans who wants to be social has to hang out awkwardly and make eyes at other people in order to form a dinner group.
Got a protocol suggestion for this? Do we just need a 'Meet for Dinner Here' sign, and some explanation in the conference materials? --amk
Yes, just a sign, maybe a quick announcement at lunch or something. -- IanBicking
