Long meeting
This was the longest meeting in the history of the Open Source Club, lasting until 11:30 pm.
Long meeting
Is it really *THE* longest meeting ever? Not including events outside of our usual meeting time.
I think so
Name a meeting that lasted longer than 1½ hours and I will correct myself.
I don't think so
I don't think you've been staying for the entirety of meetings. It's hard to say when a meeting ends though. I've personally stayed around with a few people until after midnight before, but at what point does the meeting end?
Even if you only count the time where we do things explicitly stated in the meeting description, the constitution meeting last year was definitely pretty long, though not quite this long.
I think the hackathons the club had years back were probably several hours, but again, you get to the definition of a meeting.
Longest I've seen
Well, it's the longest meeting I've ever been to, and I've been to quite a few in the past 4 years. This time we actually dragged on with talks and most frequent members were present until 11:30.
