Hey all

I didn't really understand if there's a physical location you're meeting at on the 17th (Het Coachhuis?) or only online? I have one more volunteer from Vrankrijk interested in joining us. 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.

Thanks
Kester

>> Hey folx, I think I have found you a 3rd co-organizer to join in Kaster. He is able to join on 17th and would try to gather people around his information-media science studies and Vrankrijk. 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.
