Good point. Co-locating the Forum GNOME within a larger IT event in Brazil last year
put an umbrella over our heads. Next year, for the first time, GUADEC is
also co-located with a larger IT event - the Internet Global Congress (IGC) in Barcelona.

Some GUADEC costs associated with Stuttgart were lower than
Kristiansand, but not because there were fewer subsidies. The number
and amount of individual subsidies has increased over the last three
