its Winter Conference, to be held in Gothenburg, Sweden on 6th and 7th
Just a note that this conflicts a little bit with the course we're giving for Internet Academy in Stockholm (see http://www.fsfeurope.org/events/events.sv.html) on the 7th and 8th.
It's not a major problem, but if the 6th and 7th are set, then we need to be aware that Mathis isn't going to be able to be there the 7th, since he'll hold the course in Stockholm.
Well, it is a big problem at least. Since we want a GPLv3 workshop plus additional licensing talks at the winter conf. We could do those on saturday though. Since Mathias is offline until Tuesday, he can't object to giving a speech on a saturday;)
It also means that Shane won't be able to be there the 7th either, since he's also holding the course in Stockholm. :-)
... again, let's do licensing on Saturday. But it kind of sucks. Will check (with the tourist office if we have a huge event (booking all hotel rooms) in GOT those days)
The fee for attendance is 3000 SEK, which includes attendance on both session days, lunch and coffee. Additional 500 SEK must be charged if you would like to attend the special dinner/drinks party. Registration and payment is done via the conference website.
Good. Would be good to mention the special student rates etc as well though.
An update on the prices would be (DRAFT, comments are welcome): Student: 450 SEK Private: 900 SEK Company: 2 000 SEK
Sponsor A: 3 000 SEK Sponsor B: 5 000 SEK Sponsor C: 10 000 SEK
Students: Well, students
Private: Typically private persons that aren't paid by their employer
Company: The employer pays and gets a receipt from us*
Sponsor A: Get your company's name on the paper in the conf. folder which every visitor gets.
Sponsor B: Same as Sponsor A. Also listed among sponsors on the website.
Sponsor C: Same as Sponsor B. Also listed on the conference front page as well as the folder first page
*) could be my company. I've checked with the Tax Office (Skatteverket). And for the ones who won't trust me.... I will not take a percentage on the money ;)
