Debian Med 2013 Sprint

Location, Date

http://www.urlaub-schoenberger-strand.de/images/ostsee-schoenberger-strand.jpg

When:

23rd/24th of February, 2013

Where:

Schönberger Strand near Kiel, Germany Wikipedia OpenStreetMap

Haus Felsenburg (literally: "House Rock Castle" ... fits our distro)

As for last years we managed to avoid the (nice and well connected, though) University buildings and found a family-run hotel at the Waterkant. It is at €50 per night and kindly just add your name below and do not to seek accommodation independently, so we all find our slots to talk to everyone, unconstrained of daytime schedules.

Who:

Enthusiasts and enthusiastic professionals in Medical-/Bioinformatics working with Debian/Ubuntu/Bio-Linux.

Travel:

Within Germany you may prefer one of the high speed trains going directly to Kiel. Otherwise, fly to Hamburg on the 22nd, preferably, and inform us so we get some joint transport organised. When you arrive at Hamburg Airport, do NOT take a train from Hamburg main station, take the Kielius or KielExx. When flying to Lübeck, or getting there easily from Copenhagen or from Stettin, you can share a car with one of us. If you go directly to Kiel (via Kielius, KielExx or train) you arrive at the main train station. From there you can take an hourly direct bus (Line 201) to Schönberg. The tour takes ca. 35 minutes and costs 4,30 €. From the bus stop (which is the final one) you can easily walk to the hotel.

Registration:

Free!

Please arrive at the 22nd if possible, so we have a warm start on the 23rd.
