I'm afraid I'm in the US for this one, but I'll see y'all next time.

If anyone here is on the fence about going, I strongly suggest it. I usually make the train ride all the way from Ogaki because it is the highlight of my month. Great people, great spectrum of involvement with the industry, and the right mix of talking shop and socializing.


Wow I'm impressed that you come all the way from Ogaki to attend. That takes what, 4 hours?


Hey guys - looking forward as always to Friday. See you all there.

Make sure you've registered (if you're coming), and you've un-registered (if you can't make it), so we can try to get the perfect amount of food and drinks there.

Cheers


Registered! My first time. Looking forward to seeing you!


I'll be there, thanks to Jason and Paul for putting this on. Great crowd and great location. Looking forward to it.


Had no idea about these kinds of events taking place, very interested but a three day heads up is too short notice for my current calendar. I will keep my eyes peeled for #9 since I'll be in Japan for the foreseeable future.


Won't be able to make it this time, #7 was great though with an awesome crowd. Definitely up for #9!


I would have loved coming but it looks like it's already full. Damn I guess I'll just code instead.


Would love to go but I:m going to be hitting a deadline for an Android app.

Next time, hopefully.


Great meetup last night - thank you, Make Leaps, for putting it together.


So is the main language for this going to be English or Japanese?


English is the norm.


Although, we're getting more and more Japanese people coming along as well, which we think is great.

So it's a bit of a mix. Suffice to say, you can be comfortable using only English, only Japanese, or both.


Won't be back in Tokyo in time, but will see y'all in November.


Where in Tokyo? I can't attend, but I'm still curious.


It's next to Nakameguro station.


Thanks, ramchip


No love for Osaka. Bummer.


I'm in Osaka - drop me a line at the email in my profile if you want to have a beer sometime.


I am in Osaka too. If the schedule is good, I can join for the beer too.
