W3C web fonts working group meeting in Sao Paulo (potential location)

Hello working group,

One option for the working group meeting in Sao Paulo (on Tuesday October
13th, just before ATypI) would the Google Sao Paulo office.

The Google office is about ~20 minutes (without traffic) by car from the
ATypI venue.  We tentatively reserved a large conference room for the day
and confirmed that lunch would be an option, as well as the usual espressos
+ snacks. :)

Here for reference is the address along with a map from the ATypI venue:

*Google Sao Paulo*
Google Brasil Internet Ltda.
Av. Brigadeiro Faria Lima, 3477 - 18º andar
São Paulo, 04538-133 Brazil

Google would be delighted to host the working group in Brazil!  While there
would be many advantages of having the meeting in the office (WiFi,
VC/Hangouts, lunch, coffee, drinks, snacks, etc), there would be one
potential disadvantage and that could likely be traffic to and from (which
is said to be bad in the city).  One option to mitigate this, could be to
start a bit later, e.g. 9AM or even 10AM instead of earlier.

If there is any more information that I could gather that would be helpful
in making our decision, please just let me know.

Looking forward to our next in-person meeting in Sao Paulo!

Thank you,
David
