I had to make some changes to the Doodle, with updated information from Velocity Conference program people (thanks Theo!). Here are the new options: 1. Thu-Fri 11/20-21 in Budapest. This is adjacent (after) ApacheCon EU. 2. Mon-Tue 11/17-18 in Barcelona. This is adjacent (before) Velocity EU. 3. Thu-Fri 11/13-14, Mon-Tue 11/17-18, Thu-Fri 11/20-21 or Mon-Tue 11/24-25 in Ireland. This is a little bit TBD, since we are not 100% sure we’d have someone to host this. I added the additional options of doing it before or after both Velocity and ACEU in Ireland. This would allow some people a little more freedom around the conferences and the Summit (such as, you could theoretically participate in all three! :). So, for those who already voted on the Doodle, please vote again. For those of you who didn’t (and you know who you are!), please vote. If we don’t reach critical mass of users and committers to participate in this Summit, we’ll either cancel it or move it to the US. So, I’ll keep the Doodle open for another month, but don’t waste your time, go vote now! Cheers, — Leif http://doodle.com/dfb3ga9b34ycqik4#table
