I am proud to announce the birth of the Le Localhost non-profit<br>
association, which is the hackerspace project in Lille, (north of) France.<br>
<br>
The next step is obviously get a new place to re-start our hackerspace.<br>
We still consider the now empty squat Les Hauts Lieux as an option since<br>
we do not think the negociations with Inditex/Zara as being over; on the<br>
other hand, we have opened negociations with the Municipality of Lille,<br>
and we hope this can give good results. And we still have in mind that we<br>
*can* start a new squat to host our hackerspace...<br>
<br>
We will hold a booth at the so called "Braderie de Lille", which is one of<br>
the biggest popular events here in France. It takes place every first<br>
week-end of september (this year: saturday the 4th and sunday the 5th of<br>
september). Do not hesitate to come and meet us if you happen to be near<br>
our city!<br>
<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
