Is anyone out there?

Maybe a long shot, but any chance of a Swiss meetup?

There were four of us a year ago, is that enough to make it happen?

I'm in Geneva but could make Bern, Zurich or a ski resort if something could be sorted out on a weekend.

Grüezi Wohl!

I'm always up for a beer, or some boarding sounds great as well! I'm in Zürich.

But hey, Davos sounds good as well. After the WEF of course.

I'd be up for a weekend in Davos or Zurich - maybe end feb or start march?

I'd probably be up for a Zurich meetup in late February/early March.

First week of march including weekends I'm not here, but late Feb sounds good!

How does 23/24 Feb in Zurich sound then?

Sounds good to me, since it's still the ski-season I'll probably go boarding on Sunday, but saturday afternoon / evening sounds excellent!

Ok people, we have a sidebar mention and some potential attendees. Now all we need to do is have a meetup! Let me propose 23 Feb, 15.00, we can then have a few beers and move on to a Swiss Cheese Fondue restaurant to keep the stereotypes in place :)

I'll book something once we have some confirmations.

Eeuuhmmm, people. I have no problem organizing something but if no-one answers I might just propose we do not have a meetup?

Sorry to have been so slack and not reply earlier - despite suggesting the meetup I'm not going to be able to make it this weekend. Got family stuff to attend in the UK. Would love to do it another time though if we can get the numbers, maybe when spring has sprung?
