[GT] Ghent 2003 - Meeting on Sunday Evening?
Hi.
As many arrive already on Sunday evening, I'd like to propose to meet
and share a some food or a beer (maybe two,...).
Steven suggested "de Vooruit" http://www.vooruit.be/
So, I suggest those interested in meeting should turn up starting
2000h. Look out for some English talking Geeks with GetTogether 2002
T-shirts ;-)
Opinions?
(please keep the discussion to the user list)
Chris.

It's a large "Grand Cafe", used to be the bastion of the Socialist
Workers Union. No real food, though, but there's stuff in the neighbourhood.
For the geographically inclined, it is situated near "het Zuid", which
used to be the quarter of many pleasures quite some time ago. It's about
a 20 minute walk from the city center. Oh BTW: Ghent is a quite peaceful
place at night. And yes, once you booked yourself into your room, you
should be able to wander around by foot in Ghent, it's pretty compact if
you know your way around. A map is required, though: the city has been
build before geographical planning became a common practice.

I'll pop in for a drink around 21:00 is all goes well.
Spoiling Marc's fun of a first post, we switched plans for the Hackathon
on Monday as well. The Hackathon will be held in "Het Pand" as well,
which will reduce the transportation problem considerably. But he will
put stuff up on the Wiki to inform those who attend.
Cheers,
</Steven>

IIRC my train arrives around 18 something. So there wouldn't be much
time to eat before.

Great, that's a good idea. Thanks.
Chris.

Added a rainbow-colored box to indicate it. Also added the location of
the Ibis hotels.

PS: be prepared for rainy weather conditions.

Provided you can say 'de vooruit' in an understandable way ;-)
I will arrive too late to join you guys on Sunday, but have fun.
BTW, Where is "Het Pand" on the map, which coordinates?
I think some of us will walk there from hotels on Monday or Tuesday
morning.

I'd like to apologise for not making it to Ghent for the meetup - I'd really like to but work commitments keep me in London. Although I am doing some cool Open Source stuff right now it isn't Cocoon based.
If there are people interested in Cocoon in London give me a shout. I tried starting a YahooGroups mailing list last year for this very topic - London Apache fans, but got very little response :-(

good idea, I'll show up there at 8 o'clock.
Will you still need to eat then? If so, I'll save my hunger. Note: for
eating we'll probably go to the "backstage", 30 meters further, other
side of the street.
p.s.: i've scanned a map of a good part of the center of gent, which
fits on a piece of paper, available over here, and indicated de vooruit
on it: http://outerthought.net/~bruno/images/plangent_ann.png
(warning: 6.5 MB PNG file, don't click on the link for the fun of it
please). (but everyone in gent knows where 'de vooruit' is anyhow, so
you can just ask people)
