Hi Paul,

Happy to be involved again, thanks for pulling this together. Hybrid 
with in person speakers sounds good.

With dates, if you go for anything in August (and possibly July), you 
risk clashing with people's holidays and I think quite a lot of people 
may be taking holiday then, if it's been postponed from earlier in the 
year. Possibly September is best, but avoid clashing with FOSS4GUK?

Best wishes,
Nick.
