Re: [Wikimedia Northern Europe] Update about Northern Europe Meeting in Stockholm + question about dates

Hi John,

It was great to meet you all in Berlin, and I look forward to planning this
Northern Europe meeting. I see that not many have replied so maybe my
answering will bump this mail up on everyone's radar. :)

Cheers, Karen Mardahl

[Wikimedia Northern Europe] Update about Northern Europe Meeting in Stockholm + question about dates

[John Andersson]

Hi everybody!

I just wanted to give you a few updates:

   - We have preliminary booked a venue (in the same building as our new
   office).
   - We found a motel next to it which charge 975 per night (including
   breakfast and wifi). That would leave each participant receiving a
   scholarship of around 1,000 SEK (95 euro) for travel.
   - We are contacting a facilitator about availability as well.

In our application we wrote that the event would take place 17-19 August.
However, I was told at the Wikimedia Conference that this might create
problems for some to participate. For WMSE's staff September would actually
work much better. Would the general consensus be to move the event to a
weekend in September instead? Wikimedia Foundation is okay with such a
change. Please discuss in your teams and fill out this Doodle to share your
preference: https://doodle.com/poll/2tt67n59pyut9gm7 I will let you know
the final date on Tuesday 15 May.

Kind regards,

John
