Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education (HBCSE) at Mankhurd is a good venue. Among all the venues used for previous meets it has been the best. There we have a good airconditioned lecture hall (Summer hai bhai ;-) ...), a projector and a PC available.
It is too far away from most of the people living in mumbai. I would like to have it somewhere like Dadar, Sion, Bandra triangle. It is convient for all to travel to middle of town rather than a far away place.
I live in Borivali and I don't think that HBCSE is a far away place. We have tried "middle of town" venues in the past and I haven't found any venue as comfortable as HBCSE. I can't understand why we want to make people search for the new venue address every month :-?
I dont think that a same organization will like to provide a venue every month. I had taken polls earlier and many suggested that powai (it was for that time) and andheri were favourite location.
Why do you think so? HBCSE is willing to provide the meeting hall, projector and PC every month.
SIES does not have a LCD projector. Lets give the speakers whatever facilities we can.
Absolutely no problems, I do not mind coming to HBCSE once in a while, but not every month. I do understand your concerns but I will like to go with majority, can you setup a poll for locations again on the GLUG site?
We can definitely have a poll for the May LUG meet. However I don't think we should have a poll for the April meet just 9 days before the meet.
OK we will have this meet at HBCSE and the next meet as per the poll which will be conducted immediately after this meet. fine ? :)
