Talk:Maemo Summit 2008

Super idea

Maemo summit is a perfect idea. It gives the project more publicity, which is crucial at this time of new goals etc.--kozuch82 23:02, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Accommodation

Some people living in or near berlin (including me :)) could provide accommodation in their residences. I think I have space enough for two people... An other idea would be something like: [1] --jukey 15:24, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Beyond that, it would be also good to know about an affordable hostel. Any ideas?--qgil 20:23, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

About sponsorship

Oskari from Nemein is working on the registration. As soon as it's ready we will use it to get sponsorship requests. We have a limited budget for sponsoring people and one of the keys to get more contributors covered is to find cheap &b decent accommodation, since a lot of €€€ goes there if badly planned. Same for intercontinental flights.--qgil 17:27, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

I just saw ryanair offers free flights from Stansted to Berlin on the dates of the Summit (September 18th to September 20th). Only taxes apply, so it's only £20 to go back and forth by plane. From what I recalled, flights were 6AM on friday, 9PM on sunday, but their website just went blank, so I can't check it again. I'll try to see if it also works from other places. I don't know what you kind of discounts you get, but this might be interesting to look into. I'll check again when the website's back up --crashanddie 11:51, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Agenda

Would it make sense to reserve a 30 minutes slot after or instead of the briefing session for a key note speaker summarizing/repeating the core announcements of OSIM? --peterschneider 10:08, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Trademark and Branding

Under the Nokia and Maemo: Next Iteration heading, there are two things that are listed improperly. "Maemo software" should, presumably, be "Maemo Software" and "Maemo.org" should definitely not be capitalized. —GeneralAntilles 18:17, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Changed. However, this is copy&paste from the OSiM program that won't be changed. The text was requested several weeks ago, before the branding discussion.--qgil 19:45, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
