Open source search social evening in London - 18th Nov

Hi all,

(Apologies for the cross-post)

It's been a while since the last time we met up, so we're organising
another open source search social evening (OSSSE?). It's in the
vicinity of London's Portobello Road on Wednesday the 18th of
November.

The plan is to get together and chat about search technology, from
Lucene to Solr, Hadoop, Mahout, Xapian, Ferret and the like - bringing
together people from across the field to discuss ideas and ask
questions over a quiet drink.

We're very nice and don't bite. Please come along if you can.

For directions see the Yahoo event page:

All the best,

Richard Marr  &  René Kriegler

Hi all,

Just a reminder that we're meeting up this Wednesday at the location below.

It just occurred to me that we haven't put anything about ourselves in
the invite... René is a consultant specialising in Lucene, Solr, and
linguistics (René please correct me if I'm misrepresenting you
horribly) and I'm a general-purpose engineer currently working on
Empora, a shopping app that uses content-based image retrieval (CBIR)
on top the open source technology stack (take a look by the way, I'd
love some feedback).

I know it's nearly Christmas and everyone is busy but it'd be good to
see you there if you can make it.

All the best,

Rich (and René)
