The 19th has a built-in audience, but it's a bit orthogonal to the
target for the talk I'd like to see:
https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame
http://5mof.net/
benefits to the 19th:
- lots of visibility
- presentation infrastructure already setup
Downsides to the 19th:
- audience already buzzed by the 5MOF format
- large audience that may or may not be interested in a long-format
talk on "legal issues for hackerspaces"
- large audience can decrease participation and feedback possibilities
that I'd like to foster
We've been near or at capacity for the last couple 5mof events.
