Hi,

Just had a great meet-up

We started with some RacketCon 12 planning;

- There was significant enthusiasm for a hybrid virtual/in-person 'Con with in-person events happening at the same time. (Frankfurt was raised as a suitable European location.)
- Creating and recorded presentations was discussed.

Stefan, Simon, Sam and Marc all talked about their projects. I mentioned repeatedly that we have a lovely #show-and-tell category and projects **large** and **small** are all welcome and encouraged. If you are making something fun or useful with Racket tell us about it.  
(It doesn't have to be pure Racket - if you used Racket with python or c++ or arduino we want to know!)

There was a little Rhombus discussion - Alex noted benefits were feeding back into Racket itself and gave the example of changes to for loops making them easier to use with macros.

The next meet-up will be Saturday 2 April

(Any mistakes in the above are my own)

best regards,  
Stephen
