Re: GNUStep 20th anniversary - GNUstep summit

[Stefan Bidigaray]

I've been sorely needing a vacation, and would like to meet some of you if I'm able to.  I would need to know at least 2 months in advance, though.  Airline tickets from the US to Europe aren't always easy to find, or cheap if bought last minute.  Having it in a city were us Americans could fly non-stop would be nice, too.  The last thing I want to do after being stuck in an airplane for 8 hours is spend another 2 hours in another plane.

Vienna sounds lovely. We could go there even without a paper.

As an alternative, I might be able to work on organizing a meeting in Dublin, Ireland. We can probably get space for hacking during weekend. And the pubs are, of course, numerous. It might be more easily accessible to US developers, too.

If there is interest in this rather than Vienna (or in addition to Vienna, even!), I'll start pinging the relevant people and share more details.

Hi Greg,

what about submitting a talk for the „Linuxweek Vienna“ in May 2015

and organising a GNUstepper’s summit meeting (e.g. dinner or hackathon)?

https://cfp.linuxwochen.at/en/LWW15/cfp/session/new (unfortunately they have not yet translated everything but english talks are welcome).

It is still 4 weeks to submit. Here is last year’s program:

Maybe, anyone here on this list is living in Vienna and can give a hand for assistance?

Will there be interest in a global GNUstepper’s meeting / hackathon?

Maybe this can help (you may have to go back/forward through time to find what
you are looking for):
