I'm member of HSBXL - the space is defenitely prepared to host this 
event. It just needs (a lot of) cleaning up at the moment. So in the 
near future, I don't think Ubuntu-be would be very happy inviting people 
here. If you do want to plan somethig:
    1. get on the HSBXL mailinglist and ask/announce it.
       (people will give feedback if there's a problem)
    2. check the calendar on the website for event collision
       (not much happening for the moment)

Obviously, there's also Hackerspace Ghent (0x20.be) and Hackerspace 
Antwerp (voidwarranties.be) that would probably be happy to have you over.

Grtz,
Jurgen.
