Hello Freenet folks, It is quite a sometime that we are talking about getting together again (AFAIK the last one was 2008). I brought the idea of meeting along this event:
http://openitp.org/openitp/circumvention-tech-summit.html in Berlin and it was received positively on IRC. Toad specifically said he can attend 29-30 and there was quite a few other enthusiasts including myself. So, I think we decided to do it this time. There are quite few reasons that makes this event ideal for us to meet: 1. The subject is circumvention technology which what Freenet is about. 2. The event is organized mostly in unconference format: small group of people get together and discuss censorship related issues. So we can have our own Freenet group and discuss Freenet future developments etc. 3. The event is free. 4. There is travel grants to apply so we can get more people together. 5. It is in Europe where many Freenet developers reside. 6. It is in Berlin which is an awesome at the same time comparatively inexpensive city. This is the reply that I got from the organizer when I brought the idea to them and to make sure that registration is free: "Yes, please tell the Freenet folks about CTS IV and encourage them to apply for travel grants, if necessary. You may also feel free to introduce them to us. There is no registration fee for CTS events!" So exciting time; let's meet! Now to organized this better, what tool shoul we use? Should we dedicate a Wiki page to this and make a table to keep track of everyone so we can find each other there and keep track of stuff that we want to discuss/do during our meetup? Please let me know if you like this so I can go ahead and make the page. C U ;) Vmon
