Thank you, everyone, for the updates.

Two top contenders are now deeply in October and are the weekends of 16/17
and 23/24, with only Alex Sangiuliano unable to attend.

*I am planning for the event to happen in Dublin on October 23/24 weekend.*

- If you have any objection, please let me know now.
- If you can help with organization (e.g. let me know what you expect from
an event like this), please also let me know, as this is my first time
setting something like this up.

List of things I'm thinking of:
- Let me know if you'd like to arrive early and go sightseeing around
Dublin. I'll be happy to show around even one early bird visitor. Lacking
further information, I'm planning just what goes on during weekend.
- Lacking input, I'll mainly concern myself with obtaining space for
presentations + hacking (later in the email: 'work'), and figuring out the
food arrangements during meetings + dinner.
  - This means I probably can't help too much finding hotels or hotel
discount, apart from letting you know which hotels are closest

- 'Work' part of the meeting is almost certainly happening in Google
offices in Dublin.

Is there something I missed? Is there something you can help me with?
Please let me know.

Thanks
