Hi.

While the basic activity I envision for the workshop is just a group conversation on several topics, I think wifi would be great if we find we need to demonstrate something online.  But it's not crucial, I think.

What _is_ crucial, to my mind, is a maximal number of _community_ participants.  I would urge you all to make this the primary factor in determining the final date and time.  If the time where most people can make it seems impractical for lack of a venue, we can figure something out (e.g. a conference room in my hotel (or a different hotel)).  So please, try to discuss this rapidly (on-wiki and/or in Greek is fine, of course) to make sure we can make the most of the workshop.  I think some of the topics to be discussed are crucial for the future of our work in Greece.

Thank you!

(I'm going to sleep in a little bit, but I'll be checking e-mail again on my way to the airport, in about 12 hours, and will of course be online (assuming the hotel wifi works :)) as soon as I arrive.)

I am particularly eager to ensure there is enough time to seriously discuss community issues in the Wikipedians-only forum.  That's what I called the "workshop" part in earlier communications.  Note that this is quite apart from a more social gathering, which can take place in a more relaxed (or noisy) atmosphere, and which I would hope would not be exclusive of anyone.


Hello Asaf,

we are looking for the best place and time to have this workshop and discussion, in Saturday or Sunday.

I remind you that we'll be having the meeting/panel_presentations/open_discussions (including third parties) event, Saturday 10:30-14:00 in a National Hellenic Research Foundation room.

Please tell us how do you think of the ideal place and what will you (we) need: wifi? projector? nothing?
