All right. I’ve never been to one of these before, but I’m in. I’m coming from Mountain View, so any tips about transportation? If I drive (seems likely), how’s the parking situation?
I’m going from San Mateo. If you can find nothing better, get in touch with me at moshez@divmod.com, and you can drive up to my place, park nearby, and carpool with me. I do have a hard stop at 10:30.
Parking near downtown Berkeley isn’t usually too hard to find, but you’ll probably have to pay for metered parking unless you want to walk several blocks. The Starbucks in question is right next to campus, so free spaces are definitely at a premium.
ETA: Looks like the meters stop running at 6 PM. You’re good unless you get there early, but expect to walk a block or two.
Oh darn. I just realized that the meetup is in the evening. I’m hosting a house party that night on the peninsula, so I’m sadly going to have to miss this. Will there be another one next month?

I plan to go, and I’m also going from Mountain View. Looks like you’re not going, but does anyone else from Mountain View want to carpool?

Yes. In general, there’s a meetup in Berkeley every 1st weekend of the month.
