Wanted to attend the Social Web FOSDEM after-event at Hackerspace Brussels HSBXL.

And, did show up for a bit.

But my children had other plans, so we ended up leaving early.

@reiver ah, that was / is you! I’m sorry I never said hello properly! Tough space for the young ones

@andypiper

I wanted to get a chance to chat with you.

But, you were pretty busy with organizing.

Maybe next year.

@reiver sure, I would love that; or, we can find to talk online before then, if you’d like!

@andypiper

Cool, let's do that.

I am about to fly back home to Canada.

I will reach out to you, to schedule something, after I get back to Canada (and recover from the new jetlag I am about to experience).

@reiver @andypiper I didnt realize you are another fedi person from Canada, there are more fedi devs from there then I realized. Maybe one of yall should organize a fedi conf on that side

@liaizon

I have been thinking about it (a Canadian Fediverse / Social Web conference).

Maybe put it in a city within driving distance of where @dansup lives, so that it is easy for him to attend

@andypiper

@reiver @andypiper whats the most convenient midpoint between you, @dansup and @julian? Canada is big!

@liaizon @reiver @andypiper @julian I could make it to Edmonton or Calgary pretty easily.

@dansup @reiver @andypiper @julian Federated Social Web Canada 2025!

@reiver they were so wonderful! I promise next year we will have a venue where people under 50cm tall can see the speakers better. Thank you for coming.

There's nothing of value between where @dansup@mastodon.social lives and I live

I jest, but while I am throwing out ideas I have a lead on a space in Toronto that could easily hold 200 standing room. Depends how big you want to think.

@reiver@mastodon.social did we already discuss that you were from Canada? In all that went on it might've just slipped my mind.
