Hey Erwin, Massimo,

Would like to exchange thoughts on this matter. Some questions we should answer:

What do we want to achieve with this Meetup?
Who will put in the effort of organizing the meetup site?

Hi Marko

I took a kit to Holland, I bagged up the bits in zip lock bags of various sizes and stuffed the whole lot into a checked in bag.

The absence of a hard box made the packing really easy.
