Anyone in Europe willing to host OctConf 2016 ?

[Carnë Draug]

Hi everyone

We have been meeting every year at OctConf since 2012.  We don't have
a plan for OctConf this year yet.

For those who have never attended, this is a 3 day users and developers
meeting.  Some show what they use Octave for, others what they have been
working on, and everyone gets to discuss what they would like Octave to be.
There is a fair amount of coding.  It's easier to discuss in person and
most core developers are there to explain the many undocumented aspects
of the language.  And of course, at the end of the day we go out for dinner
and drinks.

As it has been mentioned before that the current centre of gravity for
Octave programmers is in Europe so we would like to have OctConf it in
Europe again.  However, we need someone willing to organize it soon.

We are very easy to accommodate.  We need one room with a projector.  We
must have been roughly 50 people last year, so we don't even need a very
large room.  We need power sockets for the laptops and internet access.
Food and coffee would be nice.  That's about it.  We have been meeting
at Universities where this is relatively simple to achieve.

Is there someone capable and willing to host OctConf 2016?
