Putting out feelers for a Warsaw meetup.

I've ended up me-mailing a couple of Warsaw mefi-ers recently, and there's been some talk of a meetup. Co myślicie o tym?

Być może... W Oparach Absurdu? - or if a cafe would be better, that'd be great too, of course!

Oh my god! When? I'll be in Poland (Lodz mostly) from 10/23 through 11/6. What a wonderful coincidence!

taaaaaaaaaak!
The best dates for me are between 10/19 and 10/30 in Wawa, any decent place will do.

And Makowiec is an excellent tag. :)

I live in Bydgoszcz so I'd need a place to crash but could hostel it. I'm down for any Saturday night until the end of the world and I'd host one up here in the sticks eventually, if enough people from out this end are into it.

dhruva, we might have dwa, trzy, even cztery meetups before that!

Meetupi? Meetupów? Dammit.

I'm in! I'll be away from Nov. 6th to the 16th but apart from that, any date is fine. Saturday nights work best for me too. W Oparach Absurdu sounds great...If you're more into the cafe idea this place is pretty nice.

Ok - October 24th, 7:00, Cafe Absurdu?

Mdonley - you can crash at my place. I live in Powiśle.

That's super generous, mammary16! I have to double-check my calendar tomorrow to see if that works for me, but I'm thinking it's a go. I'll be able to confirm tomorrow evening - I'll shoot you a MeMail!

Just to confirm - October 24th, 7:00, Cafe Absurdu. Realized I should have followed up. Hope to see some of you folks out there! Me-mail me if you need directions.

I will be getting into Warsaw that morning and will be there for a couple of days. If it works out (and I'm not completely unconscious with horrendous jet lag), I'll try and stop by.

Hope to see you all tonight! Should be a good time.

Guys, I would love you see you all but I realistically think I can only come around 10pm the earliest.. I hope someone will still be there..

Przepraszam Was. I didn't make it. But I hope to see pictures from the evening and I hope to see you all next time :)

Nic nie skodzi, Ruelle. Następnym razem (na pewno).

The meetup was a success! Regrettably, no pictures. Shout-outs to juva and mdonley for an evening well spent.
