HN Meet-up Netherlands

58 points by beeker ↗ HN
From some previous topics I've seen many Dutch people active on Hacker News. I guess it is time to organise a meet-up. So leave a comment if you are in. And of course it would nice if we get his post somehow visible long enough to reach more people.

I'm reasonably close (Cologne, Germany). I'd be interested.

Living in Delft, Netherlands. I would be interested. I can also arrange a meeting place here for (almost) free.
aerique
What place would that be? I'm in Delft as well.

That would be www.hetmeisjeshuis.nl. Here we have out monthly drinks and other activities with the ICT-Kring Delft (society with about 140 ICT entrepreneurs).

Would love to attend, as long as there would be some talks in English (I don't know Dutch that well). I'm in Haarlem / Amsterdam.

Same here, interested but not fluent in Dutch yet. I'm in Enschede.

That comment could have been from me! Ditto.
evannyx
Ditto. I hope there are some lectures in English.
dhoe
Same here, I'd say we have a reasonable non-Dutch speaking minority. Amsterdam.

The dutch-speaking people (flemish and dutch) are typically fairly good at english so that shouldn't be a problem at all.

I'd love to attend, Utrecht is the right location (although I'm in Amsterdam).

I'm kinda fluent in Dutch if you can handle brutalised word order and a particularly nasty English accent in Dutch :-)

aerique
Interested but not definitely in. (The missus is due the 30th.)

I'm in Delft.

I'm interested too, I'm in Eindhoven but any big city is ok.

Definitely interested, make that a vote for Eindhoven (closer to Belgium).

Definately interested. Located in Utrecht and able to provide a space.
beeker
what is your theoretical maximum amount of people (we don't need to sit)? and the walking time from Central station?
Thyraon
I'm interested and I'm from Eindhoven. Traveling is generally no problem.
birger
What should a meet-up be like? Should there be presentations, workshops or just share drinks and ideas? Please comment with suggestions!
