I bet the York space would be very good in terms of space and facilities.
The location is quite a distance from our current location, though, and so I
think moving there would end up changing the composition of attendees
considerably. There would certainly be some regular attendees who wouldn't
be able to make it to York. On the other hand, we might attract some new
folks, including potentially folks from Waterloo/Kitchener or even Barrie
who otherwise wouldn't make it to a T.O. meeting.

I like the RNAO offer myself, but I come to the DUG-TO meetings from my
office downtown after eating dinner somewhere close by.

Maybe there are some folks on the list who would be keen on having meetings
up at York (even if only periodically, rather than all the time)?
