Is there any chance you guys would be able to move the day/date of these meetings?
They conflict with the UKCFUG (UK Adobe ColdFusion UserGroup) which has been meeting on the last Thursday of each month for several years now. Aral used the 3rd Thursday of the Month for the LondonMMUG so there was only the occasional rare collision.
Here’s hoping you can
