Misc

  • Do people prefer hotel rooms or is sleeping on the floor in a room together is also fine?

  • How do we like to handle food? Going out or prepare on our own?
  • Will there be a live stream of the talks for the people who can't come?
    • This is very likely. The hows are currently being managed. We will let you know how this goes!! -- ptitjes
  • Isn't Day0 better for "welcome words"? Welcome words + meeting each other + pizza can fill Day 0 evening.
    • I would be ok with that --ptitjes
