 ===== Meetings =====
-A small number of us **[[meetings:pub|meet once a month at a pub]]** for a beer and a chat.  We alternate between Bournemouth and Dorchester to give more people a chance to go.  Reminders are sent to the mailing list just before a meet and a [[meetings:pub#meeting_summaries|summary of what went on]] is often written up afterwards.

+We've settled on Bournemouth these days,

+If you've a venue suggestion, let us know.

-In the past, we used to have **[[meetings:workshop|workshop meetings]]** where people would bring along their machines and we'd do more technical things than a pub allows.  They stopped when the venue was unavailable and, although the venue's available again, there doesn't seem to be much enthusiasm for resuming them.  If you think differently, say so on the mailing list.

+These days, lots of laptops make an appearance at the pub.

 There's other local related groups that also have events and meetings.
