Best Ksenya,
dear squatconf list.

We just met briefly this afternoon and coalesced around the possible
squatconf in Berlin during May around DTN#2.

Taking into account the proposals and constraints shared in this thread
before, we are going to prepare:

a squatconf one day after DTN, Sunday, 20th of May 2019 in the space of
"Blockchain Embassy". We think it is a kind gesture of the "distributed
systems and protocols community" to share efforts and move together.

Further on we would like to suggest a more in-depth follow up in the
Telekommunisten space focussed around bringing "decentralised networks
and decentralised economies". This is also going to be the subject of my
Lightning Talk for DTN and will draw from experiences in both
communities, the developer one, and the one of Commons, Degrowth and
Social and Solidarity Economy that we come to witness at Ecobytes.

Dmitry, would this be of your interest, and the days 21 - 22 (23) of May
available at your site?

In the following days I will clean the pad a little and get the facts to
the top, with discussions remaining at the bottom. Then we can also
think about a small landing page (squatconf.eu nowadays helps you to
fight your erectile dysfunction - but a subdomain here and there might
do, too), and hooking up with third parties for event preparations.

Then everyone, like Dominic and others who would like to prepare a
presentation, pair programming session or alike, could leave their ideas
in there.

I've now also found #squatconf:matrix.org which seems a reasonable way
to stay in touch, too.

Please also spread the message to DTN presenters and participants, in so
they can adjust travel plannings, if not booked, yet (:

See you around,

Jon
