Just for the record, VMUG manager (at VMware) advised that Tue-Thu were statistically the best days of the week for attendance across all the VMUG groups. Friday was selected this month because it was the earliest date Mark Richards, our SE speaker, was available after the April 21st vSphere announcement. That said, I don't have a preference either. The Pittsburgh VMUG, which is considered pretty successful, meets the 3rd Thursday every other month so people can schedule well ahead of time. The steering committee meets alternate months on a similar schedule, It should be noted that we need to submit meeting announcements to VMware VMUG no less than 30 days before the meeting date (preferably about 5 weeks) to allow the invitations to be generated, emailed, and registrations collected.

As far as meeting recordings, I think it would only be useful if someone has the appropriate recording equipment. I will make an effort to secure the presentation files for posting after the meetings.
