[HacktionLab] missing this winter's hacktionlab - so, when/where's the next one?

Mon Jan 16 14:08:24 UTC 2012

Hi everyone

I won't be able to make it this hacktionlab this time around due to diary
mix-ups, clashing commitments and being a bit over-capacity with tasks and
todo-lists. 

But I wanted to jump the gun and say at this early stage that it would be
super if:

1 - a date for the spring-lab is set/suggested at end of this hacktionlab.
2 - the next spring-lab takes place in smelly London. I am happy to help
with logistics and coordination.

If people like the idea of a London hacktionlab, I am happy to book out
LARC for the choosen weekend. 

There will be good 'n' proper wifi a-plenty in the building by that time,
probably a hacklab with some computers and stuff, not to mention the mighty
D*I basement radio studio that looks more impressive by the month...I can
probably get an exception from LARC to let folks who want to the OK to stay
overnight in the building (provided they are clean and tidy about it and we
provide a hack-donation to the building for running costs). If the
spring-lab takes place on the 3rd Friday of the month it will coincide with
the monthly drinking club, so a cheap bar and entertainment for Friday
night would be provided! 

Tempting, no? :D

I'm also going to suggest a Catalyst Network/Radio meeting to them lot to
take place in London, hosted by D*I, around that time/to coincide with
spring Hacktionlab.

Hope this w/e is loads of fun and am very sorry to miss it!
