What's the schedule? I met Akshay Cherian from Bangalore who's interested in organizing a CE Meet in Bangalore. We thought of an well-planned, productive meet unlike our CE Meets so far.
durga
ok..I was thinking if CEans from Bengaluru would come together for a CE meet??
Date, time , location would be decided on majority , once the number of attendees is confirmed?

my only agenda was to meet CEans in person, discuss on what topic each of us can take ownership on, to rake up the discussions at ce. If better agenda/schedule is on the board, bring it on.

I have shared this thread on CrazyEngineers FB Page. #-Link-Snipped-#
It would be great if CEans can share it on their walls.
Plus, do bring any engineers you know to the meet even if they have not registered on CE yet.

We could just fix the date and then start promoting the meet.

And update the first post with the names who are interested in this meet. We can also update the banner for this meet what you say biggie?
Are you sure? This action cannot be undone.

Yes, I think we will promote this via banners. I will create one. Just fix the date.
Let's share it among everyone we know.
Also, let us fix a small agenda of the meet too.

date -- a weekend in december. Coming weekend 17,18 would be fine but its way too short notice. How about Jan 2?

How about 24th or 25th December? Holiday season around Christmas.
Let's try to be quick in deciding so that the meet does not go un-promoted.

works fine for me, since it's festive season - i thought it might not be appropriate to have a meet then, but if CEans can turn up! nothing better

So right now we have:
1. Durga
2. Silverscorpion
3. Kishan Gupta
4. BigK
Can we have praveena or bioramani or anyone else up for the meeting?
@Durga: lets decide a small agenda here. Like points to discuss.
To make it a little fancy, you can create tags with names of CEans like "CEan-Durga" and pin them on your shirts & tops after arriving to the meeting.

right.
Ok, I know this might sound crude, but is it possible to skim through the user locations :-s , and send a bulk invite for people mainly from bengaluru and to all others who are interested to attend?
Just a thought

sir even i wanted to attend, but my externals are going on and i will be going to delhi on 23rd dec. But i would like to promote this meeting and also i suggest we can have an online meeting were all the ceans will be invited😀
Are you sure? This action cannot be undone.
-
We don't have an option for searching users or members by location.
What We will so is put up a banner in sidebar of the front page & on the yellow notice above the forum, so that this thread does not go unnoticed, but it lies totally in the hands of people in bangalore to promote the event through their contacts.

ok, we are already closing the next weekend too. nevertheless.
Date: 8 jan 2012 (ample time for everyone to plan)I am still unable to decide on agenda, intially I thought it would be a simple get together where CEans interact , talk on various topics , their work of choice , get few advices (a casual talk) and that might last for say 3-4 hours.
Incase , a serious formal agenda is beign expected, I am afraid I dont have any as such.

Just kidding. 😀

@SS, same here. I have no agenda, hence gave up on the meet, but if we are still ok to proceed, I would rather suggest a calm cafe (a.k.a Cuppa) than forum mall :-s(Personally ,crowded places and noise put me off ).
Here's the range of places (read cafes) in bangalore . #-Link-Snipped-#
ones in BTM, its good. There is aCUPPA in HSR , but that place is too far way from main city.There is one silver metro in total mall silk board, food is OK (buffet) and there is e-inn(buffet) beyond electronic city on hosur road(this one is purely veg).I feel BBQ nation is perfect waste of money, all i end up eating is- corn cobs :s
I have mentioned only get together and eateries here, there are other activity oriented places as well if the meet is for 2 days or more. ( camping??/), since there is no aenda , we really dont know how long the meet would be
keeping all this aside, I might start working in shifts coming month on. I dont know the roaster yet, so I cant comment on dates

Though nominally my HQ is Bangalore, I just cannot be sure where I would be on a given day as I have a sort of roving commission, which is why I did not take part in this discussion. I will take rain check, if I may. I shall keep watching this thread and gate crash if I am in town.
