FUDCon EMEA 2009 planning

At FAD EMEA 2008, we made a short list of possible cities for FUDCon EMEA 2009.

Each city has an owner who is responsible for looking into initial organizational questions.

After phase 1, we will eliminate cities for which the logistics are impossible, and narrow down the options.

Phase 1: Information Gathering

Deadline: January 30, 2009

By the deadline, please add any information that you have gathered. Refer to the FUDCon organization page for some of the requirements. For Phase 1, the most important requirements are:

  • Facilities -- is there a faciilty that can give us the infrastructure that we need for a FUDCon? This means 3 days worth of space, typically one large room (150-200) and 4 or 5 smaller rooms (20-30), as well as a general "lobby" area. Wifi is also essential.
  • Lodging -- is there a hotel that we can book for attendees, that is relatively close to the actual location? Is there public transportation? What are the prices like? Is there wifi included?
  • Budget -- Keep in mind that the entire budget for the event (food, shirts, hotel subsidies, travel subsidies, etc.) will be about $20k USD (14k EUR).

Berlin

Owner: GeroldKassube

This option is for FUDCon EMEA 2009 to be co-organized around LinuxTag 2009.

Stuttgart

Owner: ThomasWoerner

Netherlands

Owner: JeroenVanMeeuwen

FUDCon would be either in Utrecht or Delft, both a short train ride from Amsterdam's airport.

Basel

Owner: AndreasRau

FUDCon would be at the University of Basel, most likely, since Andreas works there.

Athens

Owner: DimitrisGlezos

MaxSpevack suggested Athens as a potentially good location for a FUDCon, but needs to follow up with Dimitris to gauge interest.

Brno

Owner: RadekVokal

After last year's success, returning to Brno is always an option. Max needs to speak with Radek to see if this is possible for 2009.
