Hi all, I'd like to get regular regional FSFE meetings going and think the UK as a good place to start. The idea would be to have a meeting that, while being regular, would be accessible to people from a fairly wide area. The format that springs to mind is a quarterly schedule, on a weekend afternoon, announced at least a month in advance, near the transport hub of some city.
I'd like to know what people think about this, and is there an obvious place? London is the obvious place for me since it's on my train route :) ...but looking at the map and demographics, maybe Birmingham is better since it's between London and the populous Northern cities - or maybe two meetings would be necessary (in the long term). It partly depends on how good and expensive the road and rail connections are, which is something I don't know very well (other than that rail is expensive in the UK :-/ ). So, imagining that the first meeting would take place 2nd half of August or 1st half of September, does anyone have a suggestion for a venue in London, Birmingham, or elsewhere? All other comments welcome too. Thanks. -- Ciarán O'Riordan, +32 477 36 44 19, http://ciaran.compsoc.com/ Recent blog entries: http://fsfe.org/en/fellows/ciaran/ciaran_s_free_software_notes/openstreetmap_is_doing_great http://fsfe.org/en/fellows/ciaran/ciaran_s_free_software_notes/launching_your_favourite_editor_in_firefox http://fsfe.org/en/fellows/ciaran/ciaran_s_free_software_notes/updating_debian_keys_for_the_uninterested _______________________________________________ Fsfe-uk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fsfe-uk
