pricing. The smallest possible tent (6m x 3m) would cost 825 EUR. I'm not sure we want to raise that amount of money? Even if we'd be 10 people sharing it, its still 82.50 EUR per person. And that excludes any tables/chairs.
FYI, the 825 EUR 6m x 3m tent would be:
- Height: 2.30m, PVC curtains, cassette floor.
- Price includes buildup and teardown.
- As we need to check every order with our contractor for availability, please allow for up to 10 days for a confirmation of your order.
* I received an alternative quote for tent rental for significantly less but still quite pricey: EUR 574 (250 for the tent, 144 for optional wooden floor, 180 for delivery, build-up, tear-down and removal).
* I was in touch with Jan from stratum0, which is the hackerspace organizing the "singularity city". There are various (german) details available at https://singularitycity.de/ and https://singularitycity.de/kosten.html. They will organize a large 8x12m tent, plus kitchen tent, plus another one for workshops, refrigeration for drinks, breakfast buffet, power distribution, lighting, ...
There would be a EUR 75 fee per Person, which I think is rather fair considering the other options, where renting a tent alone would get us into the same order of magnitude.
In any case, what I need *now* is feedback from those people actually attending
Do you prefer
1) an "Osmocom village" without infrastructure such as a shared large "hack tent", or
2) an "Osmocom village" with a rented tent, and you are willing to contribute up to EUR XXX, or
3) an "Osmocom village" part of "Singularity city", which means you'd have to contribute EUR 75 for the singularity city tax.
Please provide your feedback no later than June 23rd, 23:59 CEST. I will be making arrangements (or no arrangements) on June 24th, before leaving on holidays.
Regards, Harald
