[matilda] 5th Nov: Local Social Forum National Gathering

[dan at aktivix.org]

Hi folks,

Leicester Social Forum are hosting a weekend local social forum meet-up: see the
e-mail below for details.

The agenda's on their WIKI at
http://www.leicestersocialforum.uklinux.net/wiki/index.php?title=Here

I'm going more because of the Social Forum ethos, than because I want to keep
the 'franchise' going.  In fact, I have a feeling that the Social Forum name
now has too much political baggage!

Nevertheless, some kind of social-forum-like conference in Sheffield, in late
2006?  I'd be up for that - but only as long as we built towards it in a much
more organic way.

There'll also be space to talk about the next ESF in 2006 - in Athens.

Anyone wanna go? I've not made any travel arrangements yet, but will probably be
going on da train, which is about £20.

See ya

Dan
