Hello Craig:
As someone who attended their first meeting today, Sept 29, I'll give you my $0.02.  If you've viewed the streaming of the meetings, please bear with me if I include things you already know.

No there is no cost.  Lots of free parking, but it helped to look at the satellite picture posted on the web on where to park and where to enter the building (e.g., the entrance off Laurpeter was blocked due to construction, so I had to backtrack off a frontage road along Snelling).
I arrived ~10 minutes late and so I don't know if I missed introductions or not.  I was able to chat a few minutes with Brian after the meeting.
Meeting format was very informal - lots of questions flowed back and forth.
It's obvious there are some people who are Linux experts, and I'm guessing one or two like me who are novices.

All in all, I'm glad I went and hope to make the next one, an "install fest" (mainly of Ubuntu I believe) on Sat, Oct. 27th.
Hope to see you then.

+Dan Gawarecki+

Does that cost money? I've never been to a live meeting yet.

Anything I should bring with me?

Thank you.
