accessibility.  You have to have a place for people to park.

Connectivity, no so much, but a projector and at lest a white wall would
be best.

size, ehhh, again not so much as long as 20 to 30 people can show up.
That rules out my living room (as does parking and lack of a projector).

No word yet on a TIME. What a PITA to rope this in.  I am wondering if a
public library would not suffice.  It would be easier to schedule.
