I would like to invite all people who have an interest in political activism
for the benefits of Open Source and Free Software as well as aiming at a
free and open information infrastructure (open standards, etc.) to the
second Swiss FOSS compatible lobbyist meeting in Berne, in the conference
room in the railway station. The meeting will take place on
Monday, November 5th, 2007 18:00 (that is 6pm)
in the conference rooms inside the railway station of Bern, Switzerland.
The place is easily reached by taking the train to Berne and leaving at the
central station. If you are planning to go there by car, there is a parking
lot (surveilled) right above the railway station (Universität Langgasse).
If you have comments or don't know how to find this place, call me under
TL1733-RIPE or +41.793790549.
