[FM Discuss] fm conf?

[Rita Freudenberg]

Hi Adam,

what a great idea! I would love to participate in such an event! But a look in my calendar told me that it would be pretty hard to find a date in August. Anyway, the final date can be discussed later. I would also like to help organise it.

Greetings,
Rita

The daunting thing about doing something like this is funding - I was wondering if we can do it without funding? Everyone would need to cover their own costs...we could do a pledgie thing as has been successful for the LGM to help some make it...the costs of the accommodation is 30 euro a night. We could buy our own food and make cooking teams - I am sure FM could cover the food costs.
