When we discussed it on IRC the conclusion was that
Saturdays would be
far better. The London meet up is intended for Londoners, so there's
no need for easy transport for people outside London, the AGM needs to
be accessible for everyone. It's far easy to get to London on a
Saturday than a Sunday - people travelling from far away may have
difficulty reaching London in time if they have to travel by Sunday
trains (although, we were talking about more like 1pm than 3/4pm,
which might be easier, the problem with it being later is that it can
end up with people that have a long journey home getting back really
late - how long do we expect this AGM to take?).
The london meetup does however tend to pull people from outside
london. Hold the AGM any other day and you are likely to get lower
attendance than on the 14th. If the AGM is to be held on any day other
than the 14th we need a date kinda like by Friday to sort out the
issues of having two London events we would like people to turn up to
in one month.
