Hi Laurent,

Welcome! Great to see that what you do is close to what we want to 
achieve as well.

Would you be able to attend our next meeting? It's next week on Tuesday 
in Brussels. More information at the bottom of the wiki:

If you are able to parse the committee meeting schedule and allow me to trigger on my name there, that would be a great help to organize myself as we are not notified on the content of changes in the schedule and we always have to scan the whole thing for our individual changes. The Chamber isn't the most progressive institution regarding IT...
