We're discussing possibly moving the STLLUG meetings to a different location. We're currently considering the following locations:
Indian Trails library (the current location)
Nick and Elena's Pizza (Overland/Woodson)
Thornhill library
The Corner Coffee Shop (Ferguson)
Screenz (Delmar)
Pirrone's (Florrisant)
We will NOT be moving to a new location unless it's an IMPROVEMENT over the library. Here are what I see as the requirements to do that:
cheap or free (currently $10/month)
open to the public
commitment to our scheduled times
seats at least 45 comfortably, preferably 60-75
can be there from at least 6:00 to 9:00 PM, preferably at least 10:00
centrally located, or not too far out
not too much distraction
access to a VGA projector
nothing that makes new/current members uncomfortable (like beer, maybe)
professional environment (so companies feel like they can come)
easy to give formal presentations (no low ceilings)
power outlets – enough for audience members to use
Internet access – access to all ports; wired and wi-fi preferred
tables for laptops?
