suggestion: make sure these open space talks are widely publicized. 
At pycon this year i heard they where really interesting and yet i missed 
seeing them
because i didn't know about them. Even announcing the open space events in 
between
the regular talks would be an idea.

Re: [EuroPython] Meeting time?

2007-04-09 Thread Nicolas Pettiaux
I am sorry I could not make it this week either for the IRC meeting. I
am monitoring during these holidays (Eastern) a sailing experience
with young people and we were sailing at 18h !

I'll read with interest the reports and I'll be more active when I'll
be back in Brussels, from 15/4.

Regards,

Nicolas

I support the idea of 2 years at the same place if possible, this
letting the organizers of the first year capitalize and "reuse".

For the years 2009-2010, I have already proposed Brussels, where I am
now writing to get some support to present you a good proposal as soon
as I can.
