[Soc-coordination] Mentor Summit 24th and 25th October

[Steffen Moeller]

Hi Arthur,

lectures start again at that time. It feels wrong to go. The travel 
would take a whole week, I am afraid and I don't have that. My comment 
for them would be to arrange more local contacts with us mentors out 
there. We have for instance Google in Hamburg (I think, we should have, 
at least) and I'd fancy meeting the local guys more than the remote 
ones. Since there are Google outlets at many places, it would be nice to 
arrange something else - say a presentation of projects Google has with 
the community at some Open Doors day or so.

Many greetings

Steffen
