Hi Giles, Berlin is great!
Has there been any discussions about a specific date yet? Personally I have some vacation plans in that time frame (not that it should matter for the event). I agree that combing the efforts we have is a good thing, I am hoping for something bigger than a traditional UG at some point as it is hard to defend the costs for a 3-4 hour event. -- Erik On Wed, Mar 16, 2016 at 4:22 PM, Giles Sirett <giles.sir...@shapeblue.com> wrote: > Erik > > I've responded to your survey (don’t know how useful my response will be, > I've said "yes" to everything) > > > One idea: we have a quarterly meeting of the Cloudstack EU UG. > We got 50 along to the last one.
