Hello
We are organizing a trip to Brussels for Fosdem in February starting from London.
FOSDEM (Free and Open Source Development European Meeting) is a European event centered around Free and Open Source software development. It is aimed at developers and all interested in the Free and Open Source news in the world. Its goals are to enable developers to meet and to promote the awareness and use of free and open source software. It is said to be the biggest gathering of Open Source interested people in Europe and the speaker list is quite impressive.
We will be leaving London on Friday (5. Feb) evening and returning on Sunday (7. Feb). One of our goals is it to keep the total cost for the weekend under 200 Pounds, which is quite cheep for a weekend in Brussels.
People who are interested can look at the wiki [1] or drop me a mail. Everyone is welcome.
Cheers Didi

I'll see you guys at the other end, am heading out early friday morning via eurostar ( the 11:45am / 9:45am from London and the 6:45 from ebbsfleet are mostly linux people! ).
Looking at your timescale, it looks like you might be cutting it fine for the beer event.

True, but a lot of us are working or are coming to London from all over the UK. So that was the earliest we could make it. As we will be a bus full of people I suppose we will not have to do a lot of catching up for the beer event :)
