    Have a look at http://blog.fibrestream.co.... and feel free to comment too :)

    Fibrestream's reason for being is to transform the telecoms infrastructure in Hull and beyond so that the entire community can own and benefit from the best digital platform available - mutually owned FtEH (Fibre to Every Home)

    Well, what can I say!? What a great turn out, better than I ever thought possible, so a HUGE thanks to you all for giving up your time on a Saturday. It was good to meet such a diverse range of people, all with a common interest. I'm delighted we had such a spread of ages, professions and skills, and it seemed by the constant chatter, that everyone had a good time! I've started planning the next one already, and will soon be posting dates and location. As mentioned, I'm looking for some volunteers to do a few talks and one suggestion is to get a proper format together, so again, please do share your thoughts. Thanks again!

    A really good first event: friendly crowd, good conversations, nice mix of interests and specialisms.

    Met some useful contacts. Felt that everyone who attended was really positive about the whole meetup. Clearly people felt a need for this group.

    An excellent first start, Congratulations Jon on getting something organised and making it happen. Lets now all make the effort to keep the impetus up and attend further meetings. The meeting was exactly what you said it would be, an introductory chat and meet up, very worth while I though. It was nice to see that some people had travelled quite a distance to support your venture. It was good to see representation from a wide range of professionals, hobbyists and members of the public which I think is what community groups like this should be all about. If you attended the first meeting I suggest bringing a friend or colleague with you to the next meeting.

    Nice to see such a great turnout. Jon did a top job of ringleading the event and it was very helpful to have a little introduction from/to everyone. Met some old friends and new, and shall continue to spread the word. Was a little pressed for time today, so shall try to talk to more folk at the next one :-)
