London, October 2009
From DFEY
- This meeting was cancelled and did not go ahead.
We are currently planning to have a South East meeting one weekend in October 2009 at a venue in London (somewhere easy and cheap for most people who want to attend to reach by public transport). The main purpose will be to meet one another (many of us for the first time) and to discuss the organisation and any initiatives we want to start.

Talk to Jonty about "The Hub", Hackspace meets there and it's exactly what you're looking for, although weekend availability might be tricky. (jonty@jonty.co.uk / jontyw on irc.freenode.net)
