Firstly! A very warm welcome to the new subscribers to this Google
Group - thanks so much for accepting the invitation.

Secondly, our next event is planned for Saturday 25th Sept.

There is some more information on our blog at
http://crisiscampldn.org/2010/09/saturday-25th-september-meeting/ but
in essence it's a combination of a BarCamp and a hackathon - with
learning in the morning and doing in the afternoon - the doing being
working on the "Crisis Camp in a box" initiative.

We are trying to get some experts in OpenStreetMap, Ushahidi, Sahana,
Swift River/Crowdmap etc. After lunch we can work on the "Crisis Camp
in a box" and/or carry on and do good stuff for the #pkfloods.

That's the plan so far, please stick with us and there will be some
more firm information soon.

If you really cannot wait (and I don't blame you ;-)) the Eventbrite
page is http://crisiscampdaylondon.eventbrite.com/

Thanks for reading!

Dear all!

As of this morning there were a grand total of six people signed-up to
attend the London CrisisCamp on Saturday, and one of those is me ;-)

This is not a viable number of people - especially as we have somebody
from outside our organisation giving up his Saturday to talk about his
charity and their work, and several other people (like Angie and
Manos) have offered to help with specifics.

In the next few hours I'll be cancelling all arrangements and letting
the ticketed people know.

Just in case you are in the area, I'm proposing an alternative
informal coffee shop meet-up for Saturday in http://bit.ly/Tuttis -
I'll be there from about 09:00 until they throw me out or I've had too
much caffeine.

The next planned CrisisCamp London will be a OpenStreetMap workshop at
the London Hackspace in Shoreditch (http://london.hackspace.org.uk/)
on the evening of either the 13th or 20th of October.

Best regards!
Spike
