We do have an accountant retained for our own needs, and he's agreed to take care of the GUADEC stuff as 
well. Provided the load will not be overwhelming, there will be no additional costs.

At this point, we don't have a very clear idea of what the work on GUADEC will entail. Would it be possible 
for you to venture a guess as to the amount of accounting work required?

I think there's a good chance they might consider it. We're on good terms with them, so it's a good idea for 
us to approach them. I've already talked about it with Jiri, and I've asked my collegue, Vlastimil, who's 
going to be meeting with CZ.NIC's PR guy, to find out what the possibilities are. I'll keep you posted.

Cheers,
Robert
