[Cynnabar] Meeting Location

Wed Aug 12 15:54:04 UTC 2015

It might also be great, since we are having to move anyhow - to find a
location that lets us go back to having Workshops.
I personally thought there were great and could cover a variety of topics.

I am not personally comfortable with the food locations - often people feel
obligated to purchase food, but don't necessarily want to or have money
too.....

Just my opinion!
