Starting up the next foundry?

I'm quite sad about what has happened to the Foundry, as I'm sure many of you are. It was a quirky place to do as you pleased, interesting music, arty farty videos on the random TV screens. Cool, quirky people to meet.. RIP :(

Just wondering if we could all start up a new meeting place... Maybe the LFGSS community could be a starting group. Claim an abandoned building, run weekly activities, have different sections of a real building to do all the things we do on this site. A marketplace, places to chat, to drink, bike repair area. Anyone with experience to show us how we start?

If abandoned buildings are out of the question/cause legal worries, how about hiring an area for a once a week meet, small entry fee, where we could do all these things?

Who's in? Any ideas?!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
