[17-meetings] Interest in joining or co-organising "Queering Wikipedia" meetup on 17th May?

[Karla Wagner]

Hi Vesna & Co.

Very interested in co-organising it as an unconference, especially because I have been on the road a lot lately and not able to do much locally.  There's a war on, and a lot of resources & time from ordinary people are going into winning it.  

I have meeting room access at any Het Coachhuis location, perhaps that might give us more focus than the Hackerspace?   The caveat is, we can only accommodate 6-10 people. https://gyazo.com/f257bd000c01b192fc14184befc7fc29

I'm still searching for a community in NL.  That requires networking, which in turn requires time.  Some of these that you mentioned are intriguing, so thank you for that.

Met vriendelijke groet,
Karla
