Hi Sarah,
Apologies for the lack of clarity, it’s a bit on me. The way I set up the agenda is such that we can hopefully stop a bit early (say 4 p.m.), so that we can then take a short break to recharge our batteries, and after that say have 60-90 minutes for a Full Members Dinner Without The Dinner led by Sterre (see Plenary meeting 15 February 2026 - #5 by Sterre). The end would then be foreseen by say 6 p.m. Based on the poll for the plenary itself I was hoping that this will be possible for most people.
Time is ticking away, so to keep options open, I’ll propose to people to bring a little something for a goûter, and then we can still decide together tomorrow afternoon how we fill in the time after the plenary. Happy to get anybody’s thoughts on this. Without further news I’ll make a post in the early afternoon.
Thanks for organizing this moment for FM after the meeting, also referring to @Sterre ’s post on our needs to connect with each other, this absolutely resonates. We unfortunately already have another commitment after the meeting.
Ok, so let’s go with Lee’s proposal, which means I’m not going to facilitate the potluck goûter, feel free to bring some easy snacking, that can also return home untouched.
