| - | I would prefer to be in the same hotel as other participants. Could we have some info where everyone is staying? Hotel Ibis Berlin Mitte might be a popular choice, since it's explicitly listed here. I see Jaffa is staying in Mercure Hotel Berlin Mitte (which is probably too expensive for the sponsorship budget). Anyone else? --[[User:mgedmin|mgedmin]] 18:09, 14 July 2008 (UTC) | + | I would prefer to be in the same hotel as other participants. Could we have some info where everyone is staying?

| - | :The Ibis had got more expensive when I went to book, and [http://www.accorhotels.com/accorhotels/fichehotel/gb/mer/4988/fiche_hotel.shtml the Mercure] had a similar cheapest price to the Ibis. Also, more convenient for OSiM & the summit. Probably more expensive than the budget, though --[[User:jaffa|Jaffa]] 18:37, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

| - | ::Let me know if 375€ is not enough. We need a reference amount to make sure we don't sponsor more than we can conver with the budget. This is why I'm insisting to everybody to request sponsorship asap and have travel and accommodation budgeted asap. If I could only know whether the silent ones are still planning to request sponsorship or not... With the current requests alone you could sleep in the Ritz. ;) Please help calling for registrations the ones you really want to see in Berlin. --[[User:qgil|qgil]] 18:50, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

| - | :::My 4 nights (Tues-Fri, departing Saturday evening) came to 356EUR at the Mercure. Dunno if that sets a benchmark: I was feeling rich when I booked it. Now... not so much :-) Long time to September tho' --[[User:jaffa|Jaffa]] 19:30, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

| - | ::::Looks like it's full now, damn.--[[User:anidel|anidel]] 07:13, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

| - | :::Hotel Ibis Berlin Mitte wants exactly 375EUR for 5 nights, but that doesn't cover breakfast (extra 9.50EUR per night). Mercure wants more than 400 EUR. There's another Ibis that's a bit closer, but that one is sold out already. --[[User:mgedmin|mgedmin]]

| - | ::::Then let's raise the limit to 425€ or 450€? Guys, agree on something and let me know.--[[User:qgil|qgil]] 18:00, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

| - | :::::Let's say €400 for accomodation expenses limit and anything over that is split between participant and Nokia? Clarify that all meals are excluded unless included in the hotel rates, too? --[[User:jaffa|Jaffa]] 15:11, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

| - | ::::::We need to find a simple and sane way to deal with it. The easiest for the accountants is to pay just what says in the invoice. Anything departing from there is just complex. I' ok fixing the '''reference''' limit at 400€. If someone goes beyond that point no problem. If someone goes far beyond but taking out breakfast things look better no problem. If we talk about limits, splitting, refactoring, recalculating... then we have a lot of hassle paying back expenses to every extra participant.--[[User:qgil|qgil]] 18:19, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

| - | :::::::Fair enough. Expense systems are never the most fun thing at the best of time, and it's you who'll have the hassle! --[[User:jaffa|Jaffa]] 19:28, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
