XMPP Summit - 2025-01-28

I think we're in a state of still waiting to hear whether there's going to be a Dinner (and if so, details), right?

Yes

Ta.

Good news everybody! It will come as no shock that we will have a Summit in Brussels, just before FOSDEM. As is tradition, this includes the XSF dinner, which is hosted by the XSF for its members, friends, and sponsors to thank them for their hard work and support for the foundation and its mission. To quote Ralph: "it's great fun." The dinner will take place on Thursday 30 January, at restaurant L'Auberge Bretonne (Brussselsesteenweg 670 – 3090 OVERIJSE). This is, of course, also tradition. We would love it if you could make it. Please let us know by filling in the form at https://forms.gle/S9i3wD6dmePHnovK6. Timely as we are with organising this, you'll get plenty of time, just as long as you'll fill in the form by Wednesday 18:00 UTC. That's a full 24 hours, who needs that much time to pick things anyway? If you're not a member or sponsor, feel free to join us, but we'll ask you to cover the costs of food, drink and transport yourself. Hope to see you in Brussels!

Do we try not to walk to the restaurant this year? :D

There is a plenary meeting, so who knows. ;-)

And didn't we arrange for a lovely hike to the dinner last year? Nowhere does it say we'll drive you all the way, right?

:)

the hike was nice, to be fair

Plenty to see. We were up-to-date on current agricultural machinery by the time we got there.

The hike was nice, if you enjoy walking next to a highway.

This is a link to the form without the trailing dot that confuses my client: https://forms.gle/S9i3wD6dmePHnovK6

Intosi: Is the soup an extra course, apart from the starter?

It is.

As it is every year.

It's a confusing checkbox. I noticed one person didn't tick it, and I'm already wondering whether that was an accident or not.

That might've been me haha

I forgot to check it indeed

I'll write you down as 'forgot to check, but wants the soup' then :).

That or an extra straw

They're armed with a straw!

Oh, and bring cash 😉

Everyone loves a cardboard box.

It's all the rage.

Yes, that's it
