Thanks. suzanne radell:Re a meeting of our group, I'm in favor of an informal get together, and also think we could invite other interested members of our respective groups to come along as well. Ana Neves:absolutely! +1 Manal:+1 Suzanne Marika Konings:16.30 - 18.30 Marika Konings:on Sunday has been set aside for SG/C meetings suzanne radell:If I recall, Brian Winterfeldt also proposed informal drinks at Raffles, but I can't recall if he meant Sunday or Monday David Cake:sunday is free as far as I'm aware Amr Elsadr:Not really, the Fellowship social gathering. :) I say this as a Fellowship alumni. :) Marika Konings:I'll check with Glen who is already on the ground to see what can be arranged Marika Konings:We actually did do a doodle: http://doodle.com/r7mspcwgu8qkxav2 Amr Elsadr:Yes. We did. Amr Elsadr:The Monday hour would be over lunch. suzanne radell:If Glen can look into a location, perhaps the Raffles back bar with the veranda would work? The Fairmont bar, if I recall, is a bit dim; I never tried the SwissHotel bar. Mike O'Connor:i'm fine with Sunday Mike O'Connor:+1 Raffles bar! Amr Elsadr:This'll be my first visit to Singapore, but Raffles seems to be popular. Amr Elsadr::) Ana Neves:agree with Marika David Cake:Agree with Suzanne. Manal:I believe we were talking about a room with refreshments not for a meeting set-up Ana Neves:right, Manal suzanne radell:Actually, there is a separate bar at Raffles; VeriSign had their reception there three years ago Ana Neves:otherwise I don't think we will have any outcome... honestly... David Cake:There are several bars at Raffles IIRC suzanne radell:Ana, what I had in mind as an "outcome" is to have more colleagues drawn to this project Ana Neves:ok, Suz :-) Amr Elsadr:Thanks all. See you all soon. :) Ana Neves:safe travels! David Cake:See you all in Singapore.
