Dear Boris, Richard and all the other MTD developers,

I take the idea from a nearly-one-month-ago-thread to ask for comment 
about what Richard proposed at that time.

I'll be at ELCE too and I'll be glad to meet all of you.
For sure I'll attend to Richard presentation!

I'm wondering if we can organize something like a mini-summit or BoF 
about MTD/UBI.
I don't really know how LF events are organized or if we can have a room 
reserved for us, but even if it's not possible (or too hard to organize 
at this later stage) I think we can find some good and quiet place into 
the CCD to meet.

Anyway.. a pub after the conference will be a nice place to have this 
meeting too :-)

Kind Regards,

AFACT it is too late for an official mini summit.

Definitely. Let's talk/meet after our talks. :-)

We might be able to find an empty room during lunch time...

... but I really like the idea of discussing that in a pub ;-).
