Hi Rafal
Thanks for this heads up!
It sounds good idea. I am going to submit my talk for flock, so if 
luckily I am picked then I will be able to be there.
Let's start discussion from your thoughts as a base!

All translators
Could you please respond if you are interested in attending this event?

after or before, we can choose the location for l10n fad.
during flock, there will be some limitation but still I think doable.

If we can reach a fund support, maybe we can hire a bus for 
transportation to move around.
Are we able to access a fund to organize FAD?
