FW: Will your Community Group meet during TPAC 2016?

Hello Maps for HTML CG,

Please see the message below from W3C, who offer the opportunity to Community Groups like ours to meet during the annual TPAC meeting this autumn, in Lisbon.  Here is last year's TPAC site: https://www.w3.org/2015/10/TPAC/ 

Is there any interest from members of this CG in meeting to discuss Maps for HTML work?  Note that there are telepresence facilities available as well.

I don’t know if I will be able to get authorization to travel, but I would be interested in a meeting over the Web.  If there is interest from others I would push a bit harder to travel :-).

Are there any members of this CG who will be at TPAC for another meeting who might consider facilitating a Maps for HTML meeting?

Regards,
