Hi Florian, Welcome to the Mappa Mercia community! And thank you for taking the time to introduce yourself.

For example, their next event (sadly before your arrival) is: http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Takes_Coventry I hope you enjoy your time in the West Midlands and look forward to meeting you, -- Andy Mabbett @pigsonthewing http://pigsonthewing.org.uk
