Oops, haven't forgot to post this just stacked out these last few weeks. Reminded by Henry Juan on facebook, we have some good photos of the event:

A big hats off to Dmitri Lakachauskis who organised the whole event, thanks dude! We rented a flat in central Riga, huge place and only a stone's throw from all the bars, parks and restos.
We had quite a few countries represented by those attending: Poland, US, Canada, Spain, France and of course Latvia.
And, despite modest hangovers, the team made some very good progress for the serious part of the weekend, spending 4-6 hours/day on Saturday and Sunday going through developments tasks on the agenda. We rented a conference room with wifi at a local hotel and the results were very comfortable.
The culmination of the weekend's effort came out in the SGL_Plugin brainstorming session where we prototyped an innovative design for an extensible plugin component.
The weekend in Latvia was our 3rd annual event and was a lot of fun, suggestions for next year include Russia, China or Poland!
