[Battlemesh] Call for endorsements for Battlemesh v13 - Virtual Global Edition

[Filipe Borges Teixeira]

Hi Panos!

Thanks for your suggestion, it sounds interesting.

Some questions that we have in mind are:
- What do new locations would have to do to join?
- How do locations are aware of this possibility/event?

To be able to proceed, we would need someone to drive this process. Would
you be available for that? :)

Best,
Filipe Teixeira
