+1 for Tuesday (IMO, it's easier to get there over the weekend for
those of us coming internationally).

Bah! Jeff beat me to responding with essentially the same message. +1 for
Tuesday and the venue.

Looks great to me - especially the venue.  Date wise, Tuesday (19th) lets
people fly in on Monday instead of costing a weekend, so selfishly that
seems better to me.

Re: NGCC Proposal (Was Re: NGCC?)

[Gary Dusbabek]

I don't see any problem if a cadre of organizers want to put something
together in Europe. All it takes is someone (or group) to coordinate
things. Go for it.

One of the main points of this kind of event is to physically collocate
with other devs, so remote participation isn't something that we've looked
into.

Cheers,

Gary.

Hi Gary

NGCC looks very interesting, especially taking into account that we have no
summit this year. Being something that's aimed at C* developers and to
discuss its future, I was wondering if besides putting up the talks on
YouTube, we'll also have the opportunity to participate in the discussion
remotely?
In case it's not possible, does the community usually organise something
similar for Europe? In case it does, I would be happy to help organise it.

Best regards

Pedro Gordo
