Does anyone want another HN Meetup in Berlin this fall?

[smadam9]

HN Meetup in Berlin would be great.

I'm considering coming to the Meetup in Cologne, but if we can schedule one in Berlin, that could be 2 great meetups in a matter of months!

[todsul]

I just arrived in Berlin and will be here until early December, so count me in.

[blacktar]

Have hacker luve - will travel!

[blacktar]

Awesome! Thomas Bachem (http://www.facebook.com/thomas.bachem) has announced he's attending and would have time to hold a talk. Which topics would you like Thomas to talk about?

Just made an HN post for a Berlin meetup next month:

Please vote on this thread if you like to have such an event.

[blacktar]

Cool! I've been waiting for a good excuse to go to Berlin this fall! ;)

[Kliment]

I have a cold but I could do a 5 minute reprap talk if I'm feeling better by then. Would that be a good idea?

[blacktar]

Sounds good! 5 Min lightning talks are cool! Do it! Gute Besserung. :)

[mkorfmann]

Nice, I'm in! If it just wasn't such a pain to travel from Remscheid to cologne with "Deutsche Bahn".

[blacktar]

Awesome! My sympathies regarding Deutsche Bahn!

[Hopka]

This looks interesting, I didn't know there were enough HN users in Cologne.

[blacktar]

We hope there's enough in CGN to keep this going as a regular event with cool speakers each time! Show up and show support! :)

[acabal]

I'd love to stop by but Bad Mergentheim is a little too far away for me :(

[blacktar]

Well, maybe there are enough HN readers up for a meetup in Heilbronn or Stuttgart?

[thomasbachem]

I'm in! Would be great if some new faces stop by :)

[blacktar]

Yes! Looking forward to see you there! :)

[rb2k_]

Sadly too long of a drive from Stuttgart :(

[blacktar]

Maybe you can start a HN meetup in or around Stuttgart? How's the interest down there?

[bocanaut]

Great! just around the corner :) I´m in!

[bumi]

wish I could be there. but not in cologne at that time. enjoy and see you next time!

[blacktar]

Oki! See you next time, Bumi! :)

[kahawe]

Are there any meetups further down south e.g. in Hessen by any chance?
