[Board] Fwd: Re: FOSDEM dinner?

[Jeff McKenna]

Hey Anne, I see the idea of an Open Source communities dinner at FOSDEM
is progressing (see below)...since you are going, maybe you can add
yourself to the wiki page?

Hi,

I used wikimedia's Etherpad (I think we used the same one last year):
https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/Foundations

So far I count 17 present (Bradley, I assumed your response was an
expression of interest in attending, even if you didn't say so
explicitly), and one maybe.

Can everyone interested in attending, please either (a) check that your
name is on here, or (b) add your name ASAP please, and I will make a
reservation straight after my Christmas vacation.

Thanks!
Dave.
