Re: [Chicken-users] Chicken Spring Gathering in Norway

[Kristian Lein-Mathisen]

Hi folks!

It's exciting to see that 8 people have signed up for the CHICKEN gathering already :D We've also managed to persuade Felix to join us! Time to settle for dates: Everybody's free on the weekend of Friday 2nd May, so that's what we went for. However, we decided to extend the event's duration:

Start: Wednesday, April 30th
End: Sunday, May 4th

That's when we've booked rooms at our Uni. Feel free to arrive on Friday though, if you have a grumpy boss! But 1st of May may be a holiday in your country, so don't give up too easily :)

We are hoping to attract some Scheme newcomers from the local student community. Please contact us if you would like to have talks or if you know someone who might!

I hope that more people still will sign up on the event wiki: https://wiki.call-cc.org/event/chicken-spring-norway-2014
