[alexsh1]

@Yveaux Stick to Dutch please :-)
This is funny that Breda was chosen. It is at the border and probably equal travel distance for Dutch and Belgians. I

Registration system changed! Please read all about it in the top post!

On the topic of presenting something, I can present in english if that is what the crowd wants.

Here is another idea: I have been wanting to buy some flash memory for my boards, but the transport price to Belgium kills it for me when ordering low amounts (Mouser charges 18 USD, Digikey charges 20 USD). However if several people want some flash memory IC's for their boards maybe we could do a group buy and distribute the loot during the meetup ? Any fans for this idea ?

Specifically I would like to buy some AT25DF512C-SSHN-B

I tried to register me and and Yury some minutes ago. But I don't know any of avaliable payment systems :confused: We can pay via paypal. Is it possible?

[Yveaux]

@Koresh that shouldn't be blocking!
I'll check what options are possible. I'll get back ASAP.

[Yveaux]

@Koresh paypal should be added as payment option in about 2 weeks.
I'll report back when it's operational, OK?

Sure, and it's @CM i read .... ( NAC Breda sponsor :) )

The idea is that some people who designed some open hardeware PCB's like @GertSanders en off course @TheoL can bring or show there hardware .
And people can buy it for example

@the-cosmic-gate

[TheoL]

@the-cosmic-gate I'm attending the Meetup, but I'm afraid I won't be able to bring some stuff. But if there are any questions I'm happy to answer them. We could design some MySensors stuff together, like a design-a-ton?

[sincze]

@TheoL Hi Theo, maybe you can make some pictures of your sensors and give a nice presentation???

[TheoL]

@sincze I'm currently working on something. It's not really fance buy I have a lot of fun making it.

Will there be a domoticz controller?

[TheoL]

@AWI will you be attending as well?

[Yveaux]

@TheoL we're still looking for people who want to tell /present something. Would you like to show it there?

[TheoL]

@Yveaux I'd love to but then I would have to make a promise I can't keep. The reason why I not have been active in this community for the last couple of months, is because I'm following an online course at San Diego university. This takes up most of my spare time. My employer paid for this so I can't slow down.

At the moment I'm doing the final capstone. Which I hope to finish within 5 weeks. Maybe I'll finish it before the meetup, but most likely I won't. That's not the only reason I want to finish it. I'm taking classes to become a therapist. It's just something I like to do, I'm not gonna do this for a living. The next year starts in September. So if I finish the capstone, I'll have the month of August without any obligations, which sound great for a change.

I just don't want to give you hope that I'll be able to finish my capstone before the meetup and have time left to prepare a good presentation. But I'll promiss I'll bring my latest project. Just don't expect it to be really original.
