I agree with my dutch friend :)
People going to the Wikimedia Conference are not especially overlapping with this one.
Plus taking one day or two off is quite easy. Add a side meeting you need to take a week
off.
Lastly, having it 2 weeks before let's us formalize the report of the meeting and
let's have us good material to talk about it, if needs be, in Milan.

Hi Balázs,
There seems to be only limited overlap in the interested attendees. Also,
preconference would overlap with some other pre conferencees which at least
for me would be bad. Also, there's only one day of pre conference
(Thursday) which makes it too short and in the middle of the week (there's
a clear preference for weekends).
All in all, I support the decision to do it in a seperate weekend in
Brussels.
However, what is unclear to me (question to the organizers) is whether any
travel support etc would be available, or that it should be requested
through the local chapter. Also, can we already sign up somewhere?
Best,
Lodewijk

Hi Jan,
Typically this is what pre conference events are for and quite frankly I
see more possibilities in it if this would be implemented into the Milan
event both in the schedule and as a thematic pre conference meeting (as the
educational leaders are doing it).
cheers,
Balázs

Hi Balázs,
of course I am aware of the chapter conference. But first, there will be
no
volunteers. Second, there won't be enough
time. Third, we want to
integrate
a short input from a Brussels-based NGO to learn
something about "things
really work". And apart from that, we searched for a very really central
city in Europe, which is in fact - Brussels.
Best, Jan
