Amichai, can you kindly provide us with eligible hosting time slots for the Doodle? ​We can use Hamakor's social networks channels for advertisement, any additional channels you can think of? Yaron Shahrabani On Tue, Jan 16, 2018 at 9:04 PM, Amichai Rotman wrote: > ​We

​We have a suitable class room at the Technion (at the Industry and Engineering faculty). I'll check if they're willing to host it. WiFi isn't a problem. Any attendee who is a student anyware can use the Eduram WiFi and otheres have an open WiFi too. We can use Doodle[1] to get an idea of how

I no longer have connections in the Matam area. I can check for something in the Technion. I can book us one of the class rooms. I also have a couple of places in Hader, not to complicated to get there by bus from any of Haifa's train stations. How many people are you expecting? What's the

If you can arrange a venue where we can project slides and have tables to work on for enough people, and if you help promote it, then I'd be glad to come to Haifa and run it there as well. Somewhere in or near Matam would be great. Gabor On Mon, Jan 15, 2018 at 5:05 PM, Amichai Rotman

Hi Tomer and all, I am mostly aware of the HackNights. The one I attended was not geared towards new contributors. I was not aware of other types of meetings. I also see the "Women do Open Source" event Lior runs. I don't know how could I cooperate with that given that I am not a woman. Any
