Do you have any interesting in doing a demo/presentation?<br>
I know that Matrix has been discussed on the list before, and Jonathan<br>
Fritz is presenting Mattermost in December[1].<br>
<br>
An overview and/or workshop of Matrix and would make a great fit in<br>
February, if you would like to present.<br>
