I'm a he, and I'm arriving in Changi from Jakarta on the 30th at 7:00 pm. I can either catch up somewhere, or we can meet either on the 20th, 21st, 22nd or 31st. :) --

Just heard from
Francis Bond. He may propose another date as 31 October is not good for him, apparently. — Cheers,

Actually 31st is now OK --- I am checking the availability of hackerspace (which looks ok, but hasn't been confirmed yet).

OK, the 31st is confirmed at the Hackerspace so the date and time are locked in. Please invite 100s of people and someone suggest an agenda.

Last time the invite message was "Hi there! You are cordially invited to a meetup next Tuesday evening (4 September). Details and an attendee list are at
Wikipedia:Meetup/Singapore 6. Hope to see you there! John Vandenberg xx:xx, xx August 2012 (UTC)" Obviously this needs to change as I wont be there this time. Let me know what you want the message to be. John Vandenberg(

You can also organise a
WP:GEONOTICE to inform everyone who checks their watchlist while they are in Singapore. John Vandenberg(

How about something like "Hi there! You are cordially invited to a meetup on Wednesday the 31st of October. Details and an attendee list are at
Wikipedia:Meetup/Singapore 7. Hope you can make it." You can sing it as you or me, whichever you think is more appropriate: you are sending the message, I am hosting the meeting.

I'd like to advise meetup attendees that my flight back to Manila is at 12:45 am on November 1. I will gladly check in online beforehand, but my presence is essentially dependent on the time that I have to be at the airport. I am amicable to meeting attendees a little earlier too if they like, but I think I won't be able to stay longer than 10:30 pm since I have to factor in transit times between Bugis and Changi Airport. But still, I hope for a successful meetup regardless. :) --

Sure. Don't think we'll need to have that long a meet-up, anyway. — Cheers,

Apologies
Add your name here if you can't make it, but would like to attend future events in Singapore.
Sorry cannot make it, due to school, hope to attend one that doesn;t clash with my current schedule. Thanks and have fun to those who are going. Timothy Teo aka Evan Weinstein
What day of the week & time does suit you? ;-) John Vandenberg(

Ah, too bad. Perhaps you would like to take the lead on organizing the next one? Hildanknight has suggested an editing session at the National Library, but feel free to suggest other possible activities. — Cheers,
