* List ideas of things we would do there
* Find out what would be the best location/date
Suggestion: hold it jointly (or with some overlap) with one of the [[http://www.gnu.org/ghm/][GNU
Hackers meetings]]
Many GNU people at the GHMs are heavy org users. We try to organise
our meetings with (1) a local hackspace and (2) colocated with another
free software conference.
The past 2 years we had 3 day meetings before FSCONS 2009 in
Gothenburg with the Gnutiken Hackspace and before GUADEC 2010 with the
Revelation Hackspace in Den Haag.

* Figure out how much money does it requires
* Decide (or not) to go for it
* Raise money through donations and grants (e.g. from the FSF)
