General Information

We would like the participants to read the DevWorkshopGuidelines first, then you can add yourself to the list of interested participants below.

Date

Sleeping, Eating, Drinking

Sleeping in the hotel, breakfast, coffee flatrate and drinks are included in the low fee we have to pay. We have to organize lunch and dinner on our own. Normally we manage to pay everything with the money from our sponsors, so you do not have to pay anything.

Cost/Sponsorship

Due to german tax laws, the Linuxhotel is not allowed anymore to give the location away for free. They have to charge some money:

  • If n=number of persons, overall amount of money needed: n * 60

Additional money is needed for food and travel sponsorship

We're looking for sponsors from now on, so far we have an agreement with these companies:

Many thanks to these sponsors!

Copyright discussion

TODO

Experimental-Open-SVN

In the copyright discussion, the idea of having a subversion branch where more people can commit came up.

Thomas agreed that it would be possible to have an "experimental" trunk, or something similar. For making this stuff easier accessible for testing by more users, we'd also like to have an autobuild system which builds packages in a regular time interval, and uploads them to some experimental repository.

The idea was to use quilt for managing such patches, but we still need a clear idea of how the workflow with this branch and the patch management system can work. Andreas knows a bit about using quilt.
