Hi, - the CCC doesn't allow meetings in their room(s) for an unspecified time - the Corona situation is still unpredictable - due to changing my job i won't have vacation in the next months
We waited a long time now before making a final decision, here it is: we have to cancel the GHM 2020 in Hamburg. Sorry for that. The main idea of GHM is to meet in person and a virtual meeting just can't replace that. BUT... I recently talked with Darshit Shah and he is preparing a video chat platform for GNU (no deadline yet). That would allow us to virtually meet at will, e.g. to have a coffee|beer|whatever and talk. When the time comes, Darshit will let us know. I hope for a GHM in Winter or next year !
