[sudo-discuss] Potluck in sudo?

[Patrik D'haeseleer]

The other useful feature to have would be some way for people to contact
the event organizer.

Questions like "Is this thing still happening?", "Should I bring
something", "Do I need to sign up as a member first?", "Is it OK if I bring
my 5 year old kid?", "How do i get into the building?" or even "Nobody was
there - did this get rescheduled?"
