I realize this imposes some costs on you, but I'd recommend that you just say you're going to be at a place and time with a sign, and that people should come. This avoids the whole "I'm not sure I should come because everyone else might not come because they're not sure..." cycle.

You might want to choose the date/time based on feedback here, but honestly I've had a lot of trouble scheduling meetups based on feedback about time, and I eventually just started dictating meetup times.

I can't make it this time, but I'll be moving to the Ann Arbor area in June and hope there will be more meetups then.

... guess not. Okay, Sniffnoy, would you like to meet anyway, or wait til Yvain is around?

[-]Sniffnoy13y00

Oh, sorry, I only just saw this. Uh, maybe? Whenwhere would it be?

You might want to actually add the meetup on the meetups list, maybe you'll get a few more people that way.

Blargle. My weekend got eaten. I'll try again once I know my schedule for next month.

I'm in Farmington Hills. If you folks get together I will try to make it.

I'm in Ann Arbor. I'd be interested.
