I had problem to find several "break" meetings due to lack of any off-line information regarding it. I mean a kind of "oldschool" blackboard or flipchart standing on Logo Square with information where and when there are meetings could easily solve this problem. I missed 2 meetings (EU policy and teahouse) and joined one just because I spotted Asaf talking to group of the people) just because there was no clear information where it is.
