I don't like Saturday for the following reasons:

It was picked as more chose it, including 2 who'd otherwise be excluded.

1) It will be easy to round up a bunch of people for dinner and discussion after the summit is over without any online correspondence...

But then OB readers who aren't coming to the Summit would be excluded.

2) My brain will be fried after listening to all the speakers...

All else equal I'd rather meet on a fresh day, but I'd rather not exclude people just to feel refreshed. I'll find caffeine.

the email I received from him had only eight names on it.

That excludes responders from this blog.

My proposed solution: get everyone's email and move this conversation to that medium

I'll do this if everyone wants, I just didn't think everyone would want to use or get a Reply All for every comment.

Anyone who wants an update when the meetup status changes, email me for an exclusive report.
