Hello Frantisek,

No problem, thing can take time to develop. In December it's quite
difficult to propose a date because we have already activities on two
weekends, and two others are the weekend of christmas or new year's eve.
Difficult to motivate the public i think.

I propose to lock a date in Januari, somewhere near the end. I came accros
this installation http://www.arvidandmarie.com/phone/arvid-marie-~-sam.html and
would love to invite them too for the weekend and connect with some local
fablabs i know to make it a great makers weekend. What do you think?

Kind regard,
Yannick
