I hope that we can get a get together sometime at the end of Oct 2012. Will there be any FTers interested? I was thinking Krakow or Warsaw.

I'll be in Warsaw the nights of November 8-9. It's my first time there, so I would certainly welcome the added benefit of local knowledge.

Keep us posted if any plans materialize. Some of us need a fair amount of advance notice in order to book a transatlantic flight at a reasonable price!

I'm more or less always available around KRK so long as there's notice. Anything else could be tricky due to work/home scheduling, but KRK is all good.
Unless a magically-cheap KRK-WAW same-day MR appears. Then I could potentially get away with something there.

Updating this thread.
If anyone has any plans to visit Krakow let me know. We can get a small get together planned.

I'm not going to be in Krakow, but I will be visiting Warsaw, arriving midday on 9 November and departing early on 12 November, should any locals be available (I note that meqabq will also be in Warsaw the evening of the 9th, though I'm likely to be a bit jet-lagged that day).

In Warsaw during this time. I'll see if I can plan some dinner/drinks during this time. I'll be staying at the IC

hey there
good stuff - let's definitely have some drinks or a lunch/dinner.
One important note - 11th of November is our Independence Day and we (unfortunately) expect pretty significant unrest on the streets that day. I'd also assume that tighten security measures will be visible on 10th evening.
I'd propose a dinner on 9th or a lunch on 10th - we'd go to a good local place, far away from tourist traps
do zobaczenia

Lunch on the 10th would be my preference: I'm usually more coherent after a night sleeping in a hotel bed, rather than an airplane seat. Though I will hopefully be up for (early) evening drinks on the 9th.
And thanks for the heads up re: possible unrest on the 11th, MichalFKowalik, I'll try to see everything I want in the city center on the 10th and things not-right-in-the-center on the 11th.

I believe mecabq is only available to meet up on the 9th so I will arrive in the early afternoon Friday and stay till Sunday. I'll be up for Friday evening dinner and/or drinks in addition to Sat and Sun
