+- From October 31st - November 2nd we will be holding the
+  [3rd Reproducible Builds summit](https://reproducible-builds.org/events/berlin2017/)
+  in Berlin! If you are working in the field of reproducible builds, you should totally be 
+  going there! Please contact us if you have any questions! Quoting from the [public invitation mail](https://lists.reproducible-builds.org/pipermail/rb-general/2017-October/000653.html):
+
+<pre>
+These dates are inclusive, ie. the summit will be 3 full days from "9 to 5".
+Best arrive on Monday October 30th and leave on the evening of Thursday, 3rd
+at the earliest.
+
+
+Meeting content
+===============
+
+The exact content of the meeting is going to be shaped by the
+participants, but here are the main goals:
+
+ - Update & exchange about the status of reproducible builds in various
+   projects.
+ - Establish spaces for more strategic and long-term thinking than is possible
+   in virtual channels.
+ - Improve collaboration both between and inside projects.
+ - Expand the scope and reach of reproducible builds to more projects.
+ - Brainstorming / Designing several things, eg:
+  - designing tools enabling end-users to get the most benefits from
+    reproducible builds.
+  - design of back-ends needed for that.
+ - Work together and hack on solutions.
+
+There will be a huge variety of topics to be discussed. To give a few
+examples:
+- continuing design and development work on .buildinfo infrastructure
+- build-path issues everywhere
+- future directions for diffoscope, reprotest & strip-nondeterminism
+- reproducing signed artifacts such as RPMs
+- discussing formats and tools we can share
+- sharing proposals for standards and documentation helpful to spreading the
+  reproducible effort
+- and many many more.
+
+Please think about what you want discuss, brainstorm & learn about at this
+meeting!
+
+
+Schedule
+========
+
+Preliminary schedule for the three days:
+
+9:00 Welcome and breakfast
+9:30 Meeting starts
+12:30 Lunch
+17:00 End of the official schedule
+
+Gunner and Beatrice from Aspiration will help running the meeting. We will
+collect your input in subsequent emails to make the best of everyone's time.
+Feel free to start thinking about what you want to achieve there. We will also
+adjust topics as the meeting goes.
+
+Please note that we are very likely to spend large parts of the meeting away
+from laptops and closer to post-it notes. So make sure you've answered any
+critical emails *before* Tuesday morning! :)
