Come Early! (and other administrative stuff)
posted by Mathieu Balez
We’re really encouraged to see all the interest that Montreal on Rails has created!
As we get close to finalizing the planning for the first event, we’re enjoying getting to know McGill’s administration machine. We’d like to stress that people come early as the doors to the building will lock tight at 7:00PM (and this is not just a scare tactic - this will be enforced by McGill). Let me reiterate: you will not be able to enter the building after 7PM.
To this end, we’re moving up the event start time to 6:30 PM, and we’ll use the first 1/2 hour as an informal chit-chat/donut-eating period in which we can hang out together before the first presentation begins at 7 o’clock sharp. Sound good?
Also, if you plan to come please ensure that you use our Upcoming.org RSVP page to signal your presence. We have a hard cap on the room capacity, so this is important.
Finally, while the presenters will have access to a McGill guest WiFi account for demo purposes, there will not be public Internet access in the room. If you’re brave, you can live blog it from your cellphone though
I think that’s everything. Enjoy the next couple weeks, and see you on the 7th!
