My only concern is that it might be a bit small if 60 of us show up.
Yes, we'd need to see if spill over in to the hall is ok. I'm just not
sure we'd have all 60 at once, which would still make it work. The
other far flung idea is to get Apple to let us take over the Apple
store there or some room at Moscone. More removed from the
drinks/food, but we'd then have to get that in. I think the ideal
situation is the pub..

$20 a person if 50 show. The $20 a person might keep some people
away. Maybe we should just mob a bar again. :-)
As I was saying, idealy we'd love a pub, but I don't know of anything
that fits 50+ at this stage. So, I'm asking the list if its better
that we stick to a pub/bar and demand a certain amount of cash up
front to get one (Again, perhaps Joshua Marker has done some magic),
or we give up on that dream and try to simply get a good BOF gathering
with Apple's assistance and do what we can do to drinks/etc in.

That would be more than a little premature. :-)

What, 4 months until I get the book on Amazon (by the time of WWDC),
and there is still nothing to show for it?? :)
