1:14 p.m.
As a final reminder, this is tomorrow. 19:30 start as usual. Talk begins
around 20:30. Social before and after the talk.
You don't need a Zoom account to be able to join and I understand you
can join Zoom calls with just a web browser, without installing the Zoom
client.
I'd really like people to sign up at Meetup.com if you're planning to
attend so we know whether we're going to need to pay for an extra Zoom
large meeting addon to accommodate all the attendees:

If you really can't/won't sign up on Meetup.com, I'll be posting the
Zoom details here some time tomorrow:

Hope to see you there,
Adam

Hi everyone
This is next Wednesday. If you're interested in attending I'd be
grateful if you could sign up via Meetup.com so we know whether we're
going to need to pay for one of the Zoom large meetings addons to avoid
people getting shut out.
There's no need for a Zoom account and it is possible to watch it on the
web without installing the Zoom client.
If people really don't want to sign up via Meetup.com, I'll be posting
the Zoom details here on the day:

If you haven't already, please retweet/share the following links. I've
been doing everything I can think of to promote the event and I could do
with as much help as possible.
