Hi!

a couple of weeks ago I visited you hackerspace when I was in Prague. I was really impressed by your project and folks here in Munich at µc³ also were very interested when I told them about your hackerspace.
That's why we would like to organize a geekend with you.
Just in case you aren't familiar with the geekend concept, it works like this: Hackers from hackerspace A visit hackerspace B for a weekend. Hackerspace B organizes accommodation (ie. space for sleeping bags at the hackerspace or at local hackers home) and sometimes even food. The visiting hackers prepare some content (generally talks or even a workshop) for the geekend. A couple of weeks later the whole thing is repeated the other way around. When geekends are organized between local CCC groups, there is financial support from the main CCC to cut down cost for the hackerspaces involved. I have already asked and the good news is, there is support for organizing a geekend with non-ccc-hackerspaces available as well.
You can check out our website [1] and wiki [2] to see what we do at µc³. We hope there is something of interest for you.
If you are interested in organizing a geekend with us we would love to hear from you.
I am idling in #brmlab (neunR) so you can contact me there as well.
Cheers,
9R
ps: As I can read and speak a bit Czech you can contact my in Czech language , too. Since my orthography is horrible, I wanted to spare you the pain and myself the embarrassment ;)
Thanks for the offer, it's an awesome idea! I'm forwarding this to our mailing list so that everyone can take a look at the projects and express interest, we'll also discuss this on our next meetup.
We are actually right now organizing what is essentially a "geekend" with Metalab Vienna - visited them in December and in two weeks, they are coming here. :-) So we might want to leave another few weeks of a gap to "cool down" first ;) - we'll let you know during next week!
