@Leighton you are right, no too much interest in the Gathering so makes no sense to run all the process.
If is no “official” Summer Gathering maybe the @bartlebier idea “Very much in line with regional sentiments in the EU, it might be a bit easier to devise UK/DACH/BeNeLux gatherings and just invite all other EU RBian members in with an open invitation…” could be an option If finally this national gatherings are going to happen.
Many of us are going to go to Copenhagen Beer Celebration so maybe we can share a couple of bottles there
