I've just signed up (I'm currently in Paris, but returning to the Netherlands tomorrow, but I'll be back for the event). Would love to do a short Clojure-related presentation, even if I'm relatively new to the language.

Off topic: does anyone have a suggestion for a place to work (primarily on open source stuff in Clojure at the moment) here in Paris? Preferably somewhere where smoking is allowed or with an easily accessible smoking area (e.g. balcony or street). The internet connection at the apartment my girlfriend is renting here is abominable and there is not really much room to sit.

That would be nice!

Concerning a place to work, I only know the co-working space named "LaCantine": http://lacantine.org

You'll never find a place where smoking is allowed, but you can smoke outside buildings.

Funny, we must have commented at the same time!

That says a lot about the startup scene here in Paris: only one co-working place!

Have you tried La Cantine?

It's cosy, cheap (Not that kind of cheap, Paris' kind ;), and you can smoke outside.

Thanks a lot to both of you. La Cantine sounds great, as it is a 2 minute walk from the language school my girlfriend is attending here. I'll check it out when I come back in July!
