Context and additional details

Hi, I would like to share my talk "Tulips to Turmeric: Lessons Learned from a Global Team" at the January meetup. I don't have a specific location preference, but Gent is a city I want to visit ;-)

[TomCools]

Hi @Rijosam, thanks for your answer :)

We can't really do Gent in January. We have a rule to not host the BeJUG in the same province 2 months in a row (to avoid becoming a X-Province JUG instead of the Belgian Java User Group (aka a national thing)).

Would you prefer to move it to a later month? Or is there another city you'd like? :)

[Rijosam]

@TomCools That's cool. What about Antwerp?
Please find one that's easy to organize, as I'm not familiar with all Belgian cities.

[TomCools]

@Rijosam we already got Antwerp in Februari.
Euhm.. I'll try to find a location still.

[Rijosam]

@TomCools I am also fine with February if you don't have speakers already for February.

@TomCools
We can host another event if you want? Could also be for another month than January.

It would be in a new location in Hasselt, also under our new name we+.
