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

Sat May 13 12:18:11 CEST 2023

Not here to make you do things in a specific way, but to offer each
other the option to chat or talk faster to save time and energy ;-) We
as organizers are happy to help with costs of organizing and hosting
+ask Wikimedia Austria to refund (based on invoice) as soon as
possible.

The friend I'm staying with for a week (at Smederij 2) said he's happy to have a few of us around anytime while I'm here.

Please get in touch asap and if you do food, short-distance travle and small org costs keep recipients as we should be able to reimburse you.
