    Alan S has a good point, where would this meetup likely be hosted?

    It will be in London, however I'm open to suggestions with regard to specific venue. It will need facilities for presentations/demonstrations.

    How many attendees? If under 30 and in evening, might be able to suggest location.

    The last meetup event had max 20 attendees, so under 30 is a definate possibility. I could set a limit of 30 and a waiting list like I did for the previous event. Also, it's highly likely that this event will be a weekday evening. Feel free to contact me directly with venue suggestions.

    Agenda is now confirmed. Regrettably Simon Stewart is no longer able to attend, however we are thrilled to have Eran Messeri take Simon's place on the agenda. Eran is a core committer to WebDriver/Selenium and works with Simon at Google.
