I don’t know. I agree. Telling people that would potentially be unsafe in such a location to move their attendance online feels horrible. I wouldn't want to do that. The in-person meetings should welcome everybody and not force them to make those weird compromises. If we want to offer an open meeting, we need to pick the location accordingly. Cheers Sascha
