[open-development] Location for an open development fringe event after OKFestival

Mon Mar 17 17:23:14 UTC 2014

Hello just catching up on discussions re OKF 14. Both your and Tim's opportunities for extra open dev meetups sound great and I'd be up for it.

Do you know what options there are to connect with virtual audiences in these rooms? So for example do they have video conferencing facilities, or great internet connections for online hosting? Just thinking about whether there's an opportunity to bring in virtual audiences to these sessions? 

I'd echo Ben's comment re paying - what would your expectation in that respect?

Cheers, 

Sarah

Hi all

As mentioned on our call last week, Wikimedia is offering five rooms with an overall capacity of 190 people in a central location for 300 Euros on the 18th of July. They are blocking the rooms for us for the time being. You can see the rooms in this flyer:

I have not seen the rooms, but I heard they are really nice.

How do people feel about this opportunity? Do we have sufficient people interested in an extra day? Should we ask for less space?  Does the location seem good? Is it too early to confirm the booking? 

Best
Claudia
