The topic sounds great and changing the after meeting restaurant sounds good too.

See you guys at both.

The place is called "Barn Burner BBQ" and it is on south Fair Oaks just past where the "John Bull" used to be (it is now, >ahem< an "El Chollo" restaurant)  They do have a website, www.barnburnerbbq.com.  I stopped by there after our Devsig meeting last saturday and I found the place to be quite nice.  The primary reasons for suggesting this are (a) it should be less noisy [don't have to compete with the band & belly-dancer], and (b) it smells nicer [for those that have stood outside till 2:00 am, you know what I'm talking about...]
