[Libre-graphics-meeting-org] 2017 location meeting: 30.06 20:00 CET @ #LGM

[Louis Desjardins]

Hello all,

Would it be possible to consider having this first meeting the day after,
on July 1st, same time?

Otherwise I won't be able to attend as I have a meeting scheduled at the
same time on June 30.

Another option would be to have those meeting during week-ends and possibly
then at an earlier hour for Europeans.

Let me know what's possible and if nothing works I will try to catch up
afterwards.

Cheers!
