    This sounds deadly. I wanna get involved, dont have cash for buying equipment, but I wanna be involved coz this is so cool and deadly and stuff.

    right,

    It appears to be coming together nicely now.


    We shall be having a meeting this weekend to sort out ppls placemnt in the community aswell as general cost involved and other such things.

    I was thinking maybe saturday in some restaraunt or else clan net games (as not all of us have ID's saying that we are over 18 ;) )


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,088 ✭✭✭Static M.e.


    what time you want to meet in clan/restaurant?
    before the drinking hour?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,393 ✭✭✭Jaden


    Acous,

    I'm in Cahirlistane, you don't get much further north. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,563 ✭✭✭leeroybrown


    Not all pubs have bouncers running after people looking for ID's!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,781 ✭✭✭amen


    Right I'm interested

    leaving in Athenry

    In USA at the moment but back on 22nd

    I'd be interested in helping in anyway (hardware/software/eqp purchase etc)

    keep me informed
    murrye@indigo.ie

    has anyone approached Galway county council they have applied for a grant to build broadband along the west coast.

  • Registered Users Posts: 6,420 ✭✭✭Doodee


    Soz, Was out last night...

    ok. how about a meeting in.... ok, lets meet in clan.. we can goto some Café to talk. Could some1 bring an ordinance survey map?
    any1 who cant come E-Mail me with you details doodee@iol.ie
    Say.... 6:30/7:00pm in clan-video and we can decide to go from there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,088 ✭✭✭Static M.e.


    Sorry Wasn't able to make it in ?
    ill try to be in sun night , if your around come talk to me


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,420 ✭✭✭Doodee


    So no1 turned up...... not a very good start to the Galway wan ...

    Rescheduling the Meeting and different venue as I'm not gonna go all the way into town just to be fobbed offf again.

    Monday evening 5PM at the ANNO SANTO HOTEL (Threadneedle Rd Salthill ....across from Galway lawn tennis club)

    If we can get this sorted soon enough then we could have broadband wivin next few weeks.
    Getting pricelists.. have one atm but gonna get another few just to get cheapest prices.

    Also if this does take off I might donate a server to the WAN for D/L'n files which the majority of the wan would need/want so as to benifit bandwidth (I.E if the server D/l's it then no1 has to use up broadband D/l'n it, just transfer it from server)

    Email me if you cant come and send details as follows:
    Name
    Nick
    Address
    Mobile No/Regular No
    Email
    Lickly hood of getting this service if made availible I.E how soon u can sign up.

    JP, that's a silly time for a meeting as most of us wouldn't be finished work till closer to 6.

    Make it 8pm some night this week (maybe Wednesday) and we can all attend.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,088 ✭✭✭Static M.e.


    Have to agree with Kharn , dont finish work in big smoke ,till 5:30/6 , Will meet any other time


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,563 ✭✭✭leeroybrown


    JP,

    Yeah, it might be an idea to delay that meeting for an hour or two more. If I can get home from college on time I'll make the 3 minute walk down to the Anno.

    Lads, i don't have a net conn at home remember!? So it's no use texting me 20mins before a meeting and telling me to attend!

    Couldn't make the one in Lanfest and ran out of credit after texting Syxpac, but if the next one is at Wednsday after 6 like Kharn said then i'll have no problem - It'd be great because we can all get pisshed and have a good hard laugh at midgets having sex over the WAN!

    Please text me when a definate date is decided, because I wont be able to keep check of these things, ta thx gg...


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,815 ✭✭✭✭po0k


    I'll be around. Can't get rat-arsed though. have a maths-Physics test this thursday morning. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,781 ✭✭✭amen

    Eamonn Murray
    murraye@indigo.removeme.ie

    Cant make wednesday still not in Galway!


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,815 ✭✭✭✭po0k


    What about just postponing it till next week so?
    Having it tomorrow evening is a bit short notice in fairness.
    Wedensday the 27th so?
    Or someoe else suggest a date.


  • Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 4,599 CMod ✭✭✭✭RopeDrink


    Well any day except a weekend day is grand by me (So long as it's not a friday, they're awkward them damn friday type days grrrr) so whatever week it is make sure you gimmeh a text the day before - I don't have the pleasure of constant boards browsing, so I can't check the updates as often as I'd like...

    Sheesh, Im an awkward tit aren't I!?


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,815 ✭✭✭✭po0k

  • Registered Users Posts: 6,420 ✭✭✭Doodee


    Sure, aint a prob , aslong as we get enough of a turnout then i dont mind, fact is that I'm not gonna bother unless it looks like we have enough to make it be affordable. also, whats gonna be discussed is do we want to rent our own lease line and make a node???
