1. Arriving at LinuxTag

When you try to get to LinuxTag, don't follow the signs "Messe/dm arena". They lead to the new exhibition ground. Instead follow the signes "Kongresszentrum" or "Europahalle", as they lead to the exhibition and conference center we are using.

2. Sleeping at the AKK

As it has been said before the space inside the AKK is filled up and several people probably need to sleep on the tribune or on the lawn. Since the wheather is said to be quite warm, that sounds like a good idea anyway. I'd expect the showers to be crowded in the morning, though.

If whether permits the breakfast will be served by the AKK and KaLUG teams outside in front of the AKK building. They can always use some help with setting up, serving and cleaning the breakfast. It would be nice if some of you could help them. Since there will be about 100 people staying at the AKK the breakfast requires quite some work and coordination.

3. Shopping

You will probably want to have at least some fluids at your booth so you don't get dehydrated, since the wheather forcast seems to predict quite warm wheather. Steffen Mutter and others have prepared a location plan on how to get to a supermarket, a bakery, some restaurants and pubs in the neighbourhood of LinuxTag.

4. Power down

When you leave the exhibition in the evening, please power down your machines, especially if your booth is located in the Stadthalle where we pay power by use and not all-inclusive. Thanks.

5. Photos

Many of you will probably take their digital cameras with you and take pictures during LinuxTag. Joey plans to provide a list of picture galleries again. Hence, if you publish your pictures on a web page, please tell him so he can add your pictures to the list.

6. Reports

If you are going to write a report or blog entry about this years' LinuxTag event, which will be published on a website, please give Joey the URL so he can add your report to the list of reports.
