This might have some impact on logistics though since that means we may require significantly more space for the 'public' side that for the contributors only part, (and even possibly several rooms for workshops ?)
I don't think that's much of a problem. Sure, it will have to be different rooms, maybe even at a different location in Berlin. In case of lack of better ideas, we could consider using the large c-base main hall for the user day, I'm quite sure it would be sufficient, size-wise. Also, one might be able to get some room at a university. In fact, given that some folks at TU Berlin are using OsmocomBB and even OpenBSC + sysmoBTS, it might be an option to consider.
Now what I'm not yet sure is if it's best to have dedicated presentation / hacking days or to have hacking sessions on specific topic during the general schedule.
i think splitting them from the main part of the OsmoDevCon has the advantage that not everyone has to be there during all the days.
- consider whether late march (like 2012) would be a good schedule again
For me late march is fine.
ok, then I'll start to look for a venue that's available during that timeframe.
A south-east non-shielded window with visibility down to 20deg elevation maybe ...
heh. well, I think considering that would make the search quite more difficult...
