That's me ;).

The background is that we have been planning a BSP in Bonn for quite some
time, and the idea is to have it close right between the soft and hard
freeze dates to make it a very effective RC bug squashing party.

The venue is occupied on the only other possible date (carnival is not a
possible date in the Cologne area ;)), and I am also aunavailable because I
organise the other event as well, but have no influence whatsoever on the
date.

I used the Karlsruhe BSP tp raise the topic of an RC BSP in Bonn and got
very positive feedback, and only now did the collision occur to me.

So, if we can arrange something… that would be very great ☺!

Ha det,
