First day, first movement. After this community page was created yesterday, I've got in touch with some local groups, that could be interested in setting up a open LoRaWAN with _The Things Network_ like the local hackerspace [/dev/tal](https://www.devtal.de/) and already got some positive feedback. Also I'm very happy to see this group is already growing to 3 contributers (me included) within a day!

So next up is to gather the people and schedule a first meeting.

Looking forward, Arne.
