I'm sad you cannot make it, I would have liked to meet you.

We'll try and I'm quite optimistic. :)
The date of the general assembly has been known about two or three weeks before announcing it. The reason why we didn't announce it earlier was that we didn't think of the possibility to add a public part to it until later.
I had the idea during a phone discussion with a journalist and suggested it to the other team members. Then we had to make sure we'd have the capabilities for such a meeting and the Villa Vogelsang was okay with it. As soon as that was cleared, we announced it.
If this works out well, we consider doing this regularly after our general assembly and then you'll know about it earlier.
Regards, Georg
