Perth/WA 2018 Perth Mini - June 16-17 [Cancelled]

[Ɠαяєтн]

It is with sad news that i am having to cancel the Perth Mini due to the sudden bereavement of a close family member. My sincere apologies to all. My special thanks to sponsors who have donated, I will ensure they are returned or paid for. Perhaps the few of use can still come along on the Sunday for an informal chat, i'll keep everybody posted.

Hi all

I again want to offer my condolences to Gareth and his family.

I was thinking maybe we can plan to have a WA virtual Mini in late June or early July for us WA folks. I have access to zoom at work so I can create a unique room for us to use so not the tie up the xlights zoom room.

Thoughts?

I was thinking something similar. Just thinking out loud, but would anyone that has presented at other minis be able to assist and present for the WA mini (virtually)?

That's certainly an idea that could work. I'd be happy to do a topic or 2 if required.
I think the main benefit for the minis is the actual hands on aspect of seeing products or props, seeing gear and meeting people.
SO if an actual meetup cannot be facilitated over the next few weeks, then Zoom sounds like a good alternative, even if held at someone's house with a decent projector.

Always happy to lend a hand.

I think its a great idea

Thank you all for your kind wishes, it is very much appreciated.
I did mention to some we may be able to catch up on Sunday for a chat, but unfortunately I still have family staying from the UK. I like the idea of a virtual mini, sounds great. Maybe we can also do a catch up one day for those who want to have some hands on and have a chat.

A virtual mini sounds good. Count me in
