I would suggest: "Yes, it is appropriate."
How about Tuesday, the 27th in the evening around 6:00? There's a
bar somewhere downtown on 2nd, between Taylor and Yamhill (only 3-4
blocks away from the hotel) whose name I can't remember right now
that would be ideal for a meeting spot, if I can manage to convince
them to give us a decent-sized table or part of a room. There was a
Portland Linux User's Group meeting there many months ago, but I
haven't been in town since then to know if they still have those
meetings there... It's within walking distance of the
hotel/conference center, and they serve dinner-type food if I recall
correctly. I'll find the name when I return home in two days.
If anyone else has a firm idea of where or when a meeting might be
well-placed, let's hear 'em...
I suppose that filling up the list with chatter about attendance
might be a bit noisy - how about replies to Brian and myself and he
or I will re-announce to the list as the time grows closer?
