    The time and location for the public meeting is now set.

    The meeting will be held at the Mercer Hotel, Mercer St. Lower, Dublin 2. It is just behind the Royal College of Surgeons, and has a car park next to it. See http://www.mercerhotel.ie/location.htm for a map.

    The meeting will begin at 7:30p in the Green Room. We are expecting folks to gather from around 7p on, and there is a small bar attached to the hotel where drinks can be purchased and general mingling can occur :-).

    We really, really can't emphasise enough how great it would be to get a good turnout. Those of you who can make it, please do!! If you know someone who doesn't know about us, but would be interested, please forward this on to them as well. Or drag them along with you :-)

    The agenda, once set, will be posted here, on ie.comp, and sent to the io-announce list. Please also send this on to, or let us know about, any other mailing lists that might have people who would be interested.

    Thanks for all your support! We will post a roundup of the public meeting as well as our meeting with Eircom that day afterwards.

    If anyone has any questions, feel free to email me directly (elana@zen.org).

    Thanks for the good news!

    (BTW dont castigate me for this, but lets give some credit to Ireland-On-Line where its due.)
    for any non-dubliners struggling to find their way to the Mercer if they check out the iol mapping service they'll be well sorted. Just key in the Mercer Hotel and you can zoom out as far as you want depending on where you're travelling from.

    Any chance of regional meetings, e.g. Cork, Galway...?

    No, formal dress is not a requirement at the public meeting. Runners and jeans would be fine. Come as you are.

    Not at all- ... I asked the same question of other committee members myself.

    I believe there may be a requirement to ask for donations to cover the costs incurred in renting the green room of the hotel. I'm not sure. Martin or Elana can confirm or deny this...

    It's a hotel. Whether under-aged people will be served alcohol or not is not up to us, and frankly not our concern- they'll take care of it.

    Who gets served there is according to their policy (not ours) and the law and you can be pretty sure that under-aged people will not be served alcohol.
