Oldenburg Linux Developers Meeting 2000

1st official Announcement

This is the first official announcement for the the 2000 Linux Developers Meeting in Oldenburg (formerly known as m68k Hacker's Meeting). Please forward this announcement to whoever you consider developer enough to join. The meeting takes place from

The developers meeting will take place in the same rooms like last year. However, if more people are attending than last year, we're going to use a larger room or use two rooms side by side. As usual, attendance is free of cost, however you should be a developer.

We're also organizing at least three independend power circuits that should help us avoid a general power failure. :-) We did not have one last year, so there's a good chance we'll survive this year again.

IP connectivity will be sponsored by the computing center of our University to whose network we will be connected with a masquerading router. We are trying to get food and fluids sponsored as well. Nevertheless you should not forget your regular hacker's food.

You may arrive on Thursday if you like. You may also stay longer if you like. If you need to picked up at the train station, let us know when you're going to arrive - i.e. tell us to receive a mobile number from one of us. This will be optimized wrt. to last year. :)

If you can't carry large machines with you, there are a bunch of machines that others take with them to "play" with. I have two HP boxes (m68k, parisc) to play with as well.
