I think that's really a lot of effort for little gain. If we have more volunteers organizing stuff, I do agree it makes sense to talk to people in their own language. Being extremely local does work: when I did a meetup here in Halle, someone came from a small town 45 minutes away, because he preferred going to something in a small town, rather than in nearby Mechelen. But at this time, I think there's real value in doing things that are open to both Brussels and Flemish people. Especially as we have Flemish volunteers who have been working a little too hard, and a lot of energy in Brussels right now.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>And don't forget there is a huge international community in Brussels, for whom often both French and Dutch are quite exotic. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>So please do sign up on the framapad, and let's pick a date.
