I did get a chance to talk with the owner for a while around 5:00. He did indeed seem a bit overwhelmed.<br><br>It
will all come down to what sort of businessman he is. If he is tightly
focused we aren't the obvious fit for him. If he has his eye on the big
picture and can see the benefit of community involvement it may turn
into a great place to get together. Let's see what he has to say in a
couple of weeks. Right now they are inundated with orders they need to
fill.<br>
<br>If you're handy with a roll of packing tape it may be worth getting
some contract hours in with them to help them get them get through the
backlog.<br><br>Matt<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Sep 23, 2012 at 10:13 PM, Lan Dang <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:l.dang@ymail.com" target="_blank">l.dang@ymail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<p>Did you guys have a chance to stop by Deezemaker Hackerspace during their grand opening today? What do you think?</p>
<p>I didn't get there till after 6pm, but I had a good time chatting with folks. There were a few people from Crashspace there. I saw James and we talked to Diego about our group. I know we weren't the first ones from SGVHAK to approach him. It does seem likely that we may be able to host the next meeting at Deezemaker's, if we choose to. I am not entirely sure about the financial aspect. He is still thinking about membership pricing and group rates.</p>
<p>He seems overwhelmed at the moment with the grand opening and other things he has lined up. We would need to check with him again in a couple of weeks.</p>
<p>Any thoughts on this? I think we should keep looking for other meeting places for October, in case things don't work out with Deezmaker's for next month.</p><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">
