 how much interest there is.
 
 I have very little detail at this point, other than I'm looking at
 locations in the US, and that it would be mid-cycle (January/February).

Is openstack looking to have a strong presence at FOSDEM 2014 ? I didn't
make it to FOSDEM this year, but IIUC, there were quite a few openstack
contributors  talks in 2013.

IOW, should we consider holding the meetup in Brussels just before/after
FOSDEM, so that people who want/need to attend both can try to maximise
utilization of their often limited travel budgets and/or minimise the
number of days lost to travelling ?

Regards,
Daniel

Yes, we are aiming for a devroom again at FOSDEM this year.

I would certainly like that, but I'm not sure the center of gravity for
Nova contributors is in Europe :)

++, I think this is a great idea especially considering how busy the
summits are becoming.
