Hi Harald,
- 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).
Is that for the same size tent ? Also I guess that doesn't include any table/chairs right ?
I don't think we ever had wooden floor at previous events.
I know we handled shipping / build-up / tear-down ourselves, but obviously that require someone with the means to transport that and time for build / tear-down. I get on site on the 20th (~ midday) and leave on the 25th evening if that helps.
- an "Osmocom village" without infrastructure such as a shared large "hack tent", or
Definitely not. I mean, I think the whole point of the camp is to get together and work/hack on stuff. Without a good place to set down that makes it difficult.
an "Osmocom village" with a rented tent, and you are willing to contribute up to EUR XXX, or
an "Osmocom village" part of "Singularity city", which means you'd have to contribute EUR 75 for the singularity city tax.
I'm good with either of those options. And as for the XXX, I think anything less than 100 EUR is reasonable for me. Unfortunately coming by plane, I can't really bring much "infrastructure" with me. So I definitely wouldn't mind be part of singularity city and have someone else handle the logistics. I think it might just depend on how many people we are and if they can accept us without being crowded :p
Cheers,
Sylvain
