I would prefer Sat July 26th. If it's around 12pm that's perfect.

| Both dates are fine! | Jul 4, 2008 |
Basically I'm free on Saturdays and Sundays. I'll be there!

And so we have a winner,
July 26th. Thanks for getting back to me about your availability everybody.
Any preference about the time? I'm thinking of a lunchtime start.
I was thinking of getting hold of a venue where we can easily have a bit of work related chat and perhaps a wordfast demo at the start and then let things progress/degenerate from there. Perhaps a big izakaya in a central location such as Shinjuku?

If we are going to do some wordfast stuff people will have to try and bring along a laptop so we can follow the demo.
Any suggestions about this event are more than welcome, so don't hold back, especially if you've been to a powwow before and seen some things you thought were good/bad about it that could be done, or not, at this gathering.
Cheers,

Unfortunately Saturdays don't work for me, so I will have to miss it. Would it be possible to have a summary of what happened posted on Proz later?

Sorry, I can't make it that weekend. I attended the last Powwow and met Henry and some of the members listed here. It was an interesting meeting. Getting to see the Proz people in real life was fun. Maybe next time ! I'll be looking forward to the report of the event later.

...since I live a one and a half hours from Tokyo. By the way, have you decided where to hold the event?

Sorry I have a previous appointment. I also look forward to reading CalumR's report together with some pictures!

Hello Calum,
Thanks for your work on organizing the PowWow. I thought I'd add a few suggestions regarding location.
* Probably a large Izakaya with a large semi-private area would be appropriate.
* If possible, having several adjacent tables (versus one long skinny one) helps conversation.
* A central location like Shinjuku, Shibuya, Ebisu, etc.

Thanks for your work on organizing the PowWow. I thought I'd add a few suggestions regarding location.
* Probably a large Izakaya with a large semi-private area would be appropriate.
* If possible, having several adjacent tables (versus one long skinny one) helps conversation.
* A central location like Shinjuku, Shibuya, Ebisu, etc.
* Sounds like this will be a lunch / afternoon event, so I suggest skipping the "nomi-hodai" courses for the time being (leave that for the nijikai!)
* Maybe arrange for a course meal with enough veggie options to please non-carnivors.
...just a few pointers.
Good luck!
