Re: [guadec-list] Accommodation plans



I've received few and small bits of feedback about the camping strategy.
All of them positive, though.

If you have concerns expose them now, otherwise we will start doing the
steps towards the bungalow-based GNOME Village.

The complexity here is how to make the right reservation. There are too
many variables: people not staying all nights, some preferring less
price & space (5 in a bungalow), others willing to pay more for more
comfort (2 in a bungalow), people alone needing to find others to share...

Also we may expect people coming with family & friends not being
registered at GUADEC. Being a week away in a place with decent prices,
lots of green, swimming pool and the beach nearby, this is a possibility
I'm considering myself.

This is why I ended up (fully intuitively, no research here) with this
idea of accommodation for 150 people as a peak. Or 30 bungalows for 8
nights (from the 23rd to the 30th) which is what really matters to make
the reservation. If they are booked soon we can probably go for some more.

Maybe a post in the GUADEC homepage + Planet + Gnomedesktop + email to
the advisory board companies explaining the bungalow-based GNOME Village
and asking for accommodation plans and pre-booking with no compromise
could help having a better idea?
