The FOSDEM program is out and I don’t see any talk or meeting related librehosters. Who is coming to Brussels?

There’s OFFDEM where we can host a meeting, also with people from InfraRED and CHATONS.

@realitygaps is hosting the Decentralized Internet and Privacy Devroom on Sunday, so we’d better meet on Friday or Saturday (or Monday), but OFFDEM is only on Saturday and Sunday.

@pierreozoux will also be there, celebrating 5 years of Indie.Host! Watch out!

I might come from Marseille if train are running …

ill be at https://cfgmgmtcamp.eu/ghent2020/ on monday also, so cant meet then

We wanted to present as well, but didn’t get approval :slight_smile: How do we submit for OFFDEM ? :stuck_out_tongue:

There’s not really a submission to OFFDEM. We still thinking about bringing intersectional topics, v but otherwise the prices is quite open, where your already intervened :grinning:

Who’s up for a meeting between Librehosters and InfraRED during OFFDEM?

Please pass by the Indie.host :birthday: party on Friday night! @pierreozoux has yet to post an announcement, but it will take place in a cool space called Labokube.

Hi, should we try to fix a LH appointment ? Breakfast, lunch, teatime or dinner together ?
Who can make it when ?

  • 1/2 9:30
  • 1/2 12:30

For me the LH appointmet can be a Librehosters - InfraRED meeting. @how you want to invite InfraRED to fill in the poll? Or you have an other idea how to decide on the right moment?

I don’t think a single appointment will work since all people have different things to do and to attend during the weekend. IMO the first meeting point should be Indie.host :birthday: party.

Sunday is probably not going to work since there’s the Decentralized Internet devroom at FOSDEM organized by @realitygaps and others.

Saturday evening there’s a dinner at OFFDEM but probably not a good moment for a gathering among ourselves. It leaves Saturday during the day – competing with the SocialHub – or Sunday after 17:00 (closing of FOSDEM).

ok no LH as such then

I do not understand your response. What is “LH as such”, and what is the causality that makes you add “then”?

Since a lot of people arrive on Friday evening, we could have a first point of contact at Labokube for Indie.host’s 5th birthday. Late nighters can pursue at fukami’s party downtown.
