In private e-mail I've now had one other person express interest in
being in the audience!

One of these evenings:

  * Monday August 13th
  * Tuesday August 14th
  * Wednesday August 15th
  * Thursday August 16th

  * Monday August 20th
  * Tuesday August 21st
  * Wednesday August 22nd
  * Thursday August 23rd

-- whichever turns out to be the most convenient for those concerned.
Thursday 16th sounds good to me, but this event is only feasible if we
get some other speakers will to participate, and there may be
restrictions on when they can do.

(That's why it was in brackets!)
