+ <h3>Travel costs</h3>
+
+ <p>Hungary is located in the center of Europe therefore all big,
+ worldwide known airlines (like British Airways, Lufthansa, Air France,
+ Alitalia, SAS, Aeroflot, etc) are flying to Ferihegy Airport. The
+ Hungarian national airline â MALEV offers also every day connections to
+ all European capitals.</p>
+
+ <p>It is difficult to give a price quotation for the flight costs,
+ because nowadays it depends on several conditions â e.g. the class, the
+ period of the week and the time of the booking, the current booking
+ situation of the flight, etc.</p>
+
+ <p>An average flight ticket from the European countries to Budapest may
+ cost between EUR 250 and EUR 450 (retour) but flying by low cost airlines
+ can make big savings.</p>
+
+ <p>Low cost Airlines flying to Hungary: Air Berlin, Air Finland, Air
+ Lingus, EasyJet, FlyNordic, Germanwings, Ryanair at the lake Balaton,
+ SmartWing, Wizzair</p>
+
+ <h3>Accomodation costs (youth hostel, hotel)</h3>
+
+ <h4>Hotels</h4>
+
+ <p>September is a favourite period of tourists for city breaks, so the
+ organisers are ready to make block reservations for the participants at
+ guaranteed rates to make hotel bookings easier. Please find a list of
+ recommended hotels below in different categories which could be offered
+ for accommodation. They have all easy access by public transportation to
+ the conference venue. The rates are informative and will be fixed upon

+
+ <h3>Government support</h3>
+
+ <p>The Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs, Mr Dermot Ahern T.D., has
+ agreed to support the bid for OOoCon 2008 in Louth, Ireland and I have
+ attached a letter of his willingness to proactively support the
+ conference.</p>
+
+ <p>The Minister said, <em>I am delighted to support this important event
+ in the global open source calendar. Recent events in global markets
+ underline the need for all types of businesses and organisations to
+ ensure their competitiveness and the open standards and technical
+ innovation promoted by events such as OOoCon are a key strategy in this
+ area. I would be delighted and honoured to open this event should
+ Ireland's bid be successful. As one of the largest software exporters in
+ the world, it is appropriate that we share both our expertise and our
+ famous Irish hospitality with the open source software community from
+ around the world at this conference.</em></p>
+
+ <p>The location of the conference (Louth is on the border with Northern
+ Ireland) is also of huge importance and support for the conference has
+ been organised on a cross-border basis.</p>
+
+ <p>The Minister added, <em>As a border county, Louth is ideally placed to
+ showcase the economic potential of peace and political stability on our
+ island.</em></p>
+
+ <h3>Social</h3>
+
+ <p>At the end of a long working day, clocking off comes as a welcome
+ relief and nobody on the planet knows how to work hard and play hard like
+ the Irish!</p>
+
+ <p>We have a number of once in a life time entertainment options
+ available to OOoCon attendees:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Conference Celebrations in Slane Castle - Depending on availability
+ we hope to provide Slane Castle as the backdrop for an evenings
+ entertainment to open or close the conference. This wonderful 17th
+ century castle is where U2 famously recorded 'The Unforgettable Fire'
+ album. U2, Thin Lizzy, The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Bob Dylan and
+ others have since played in it's historic Grounds.</li>
+
+ <li>Medieval Drogheda - The town of Drogheda will provide a range of
+ traditional music, pubs, clubs and restaurants to socialise, relax and
+ unwind after each day of the conference</li>
+
+ <li>Adventure Sports - For those of a more active nature a range of
+ outdoor activities including sailing, windsurfing, kayaking, rock
+ climbing and abseiling will be provided at discounted rates from
+ <a href=
+ "http://www.carlingfordadventure.com">http://www.carlingfordadventure.com</a>.</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>For a small country, Ireland has an incredible variety of scenery. As
+ an island on the edge of Europe we have a fascinating history that
+ stretches back over 8,000 years. Louth (just 25 minutes from Dublin
+ Airport) is Ireland's smallest county with some of the most amazing
+ history and heritage including</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Medieval Drogheda</li>
+
+ <li>Access to Carlingford Lough and the Mourne Mountains (an Area of
+ Outstanding Beauty)</li>
+
+ <li>The Medieval and Norman Heritage Town of Carlingford which over
+ looks the Mourne Mountains</li>
+
+ <li>The Boyne Valley that leads to Newgrange (A UNESCO World Heritage
+ Site), Slane Castle and the Ancient Hill of Tara where past Kings of
+ Ireland were crowned</li>
+
+ <li>Tours of Belfast will also be available to ensure the hospitality
+ of all of the island of Ireland is available to those staying a little
+ longer</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <h3>Broadband Internet access</h3>
+
+ <p>Free WiFi / Broadband access will be available in all Campus meeting
+ facilities, Hostels and Hotels.</p>

+
+ <h2>The Event</h2>
+
+ <p>The OpenOffice.org Annual International Conference (OOoCon) is the
+ premier event for anyone interested in or working with OpenOffice.org.
+ OOoCon is where representatives of all the community projects meet to
+ celebrate and learn from the achievements of the past twelve months, and
+ discuss how to meet the challenges of the next twelve.</p>
+
+ <h2>The Location</h2>
+
+ <p>Every year, a completely new team adopts OOoCon, brings it to their
+ country, and puts their own flavour on it. They have a great deal of
+ freedom in how they run OOoCon, but they can always call on the
+ experience of past organizers and the central Marketing Project. The
+ result is a conference which has a lot of fresh energy every year,
+ guarantees suprises, but which is also reliably interesting. Many
+ attendees consider it to be one of the most informative and friendliest
+ open-source events to be found anywhere in the world.</p>
+
+ <h2>The Choices</h2>
+
+ <p>OOoCon is the Community's conference, so it's only right that the
+ choice of where it is held lies with the <a href=
+ "http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/guidelines.html">Community
+ members</a>. <em>If you were a registered Community member on 1st January
+ 2008, you are entitled to vote</em> for the location where you would
+ prefer to attend Conference. If you know you won't be able to attend,
+ <strong>please don't vote</strong> - we want OOoCon to be held where the
+ maximum number of people can attend.</p>
+
+ <p>Teams were asked to provide information in a <a href="cfl.html">Call
+ for Location</a>. Their replies have been presented in the same format to
+ make it easy to compare one with another. Some teams have provided more
+ complete answers than others.</p>
+
+ <p>There are six locations to choose from this year:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li><a href="amsterdam.html">Amsterdam</a>, The Netherlands</li>
+
+ <li><a href="beijing.html">Beijing</a>, China</li>

+
+ <li><a href="orvieto.html">Orvieto</a>, Italy</li>
+
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>Please read the details of each venue carefully, and decide where
+ you would like to attend OOoCon in 2008. Once you have made your choice,
+ please <a href="vote.html">cast your vote</a><p>.
+
+ <h2>The Timetable</h2>
+

+ <h2>Key Question</h2>
+
+ <div class="quotation">
+ <p>In 400 words or less, answer this question: Why is your location and
+ the date you propose the best for OOoCon 2008?</p>
+ </div>
+
+ <p>The city of Orvieto, with its 21,000 inhabitants, is one of the most
+ charming cities of art in Italy. Located in Umbria, in the heart of
+ Italy, it's 100 km far from Rome and 140 km from Florence and easy to
+ reach by plane, train and car.</p>
+
+ <p>It is a center for courses leading to university degrees (Informatics
+ and Telecommunications Engineering), post-graduate courses (Architecture,
+ Health Psychology, Archaeology), as well as specialization courses of
+ prestigious Italian universities.</p>
+
+ <p>The plateau with its tufa cliff walls defines the area of the
+ historical center of Orvieto â a stupendous palimpsest of Etruscan,
+ Medieval and Renaissance structures. The city is known for its efficient
+ congress facilities and a qualified service network for hospitality.
+ Restaurants, wine and champagne bars and pubs offer a variety of the fine
+ wines and foods for which Orvieto is famous. These features together with
+ the intact environment, pleasant climate and a system of alternative
+ mobility make the city ideal for meetings, seminars and study days of all
+ kinds.</p>
+
+ <p>Not by chance Orvieto, world capital of good living (âCittaslowâ), has
+ hosted important national and international appointments: Slow Food World
+ Congress, Hydrogencities foundation (with J. Rifkin) and it is site of
+ prestigious cultural events during the year which include Umbria Jazz
+ Winter, Barzini Award for the special correspondent (in collaboration
+ with the Corriere della Sera), the International Award for Human Rights,
+ outstanding Art exhibits, Conventions and post-graduate studies of
+ American universities.</p>
+
+ <p>The political-administrative context is particularly favorable for the
+ diffusion of open source culture. Umbria â the region in which Orvieto is
+ located â was one of the first Italian regions to approve a law on
+ âinformatics pluralismâ and to have instituted (L.R. n. 11 of 2006) a
+ Center of Competence on Open Source that works to favor the introduction
+ of open source software in the Public Administration and in the schools.
+ This year 80 projects will be financed, 60 of which plan for the
+ introduction of OpenOffice.org in the local institutions, 4 are projects
+ from Orvieto.</p>
+
+ <p>The Municipal Administration totally supports the candidature of
+ Orvieto as an OOoCon2008 center, already translated into precise
+ commitments for logistic and organizational collaboration.</p>
+
+ <p>We would like to introduce some changes with the OOoCon2008. The most
+ important is to hold an Italian session, in parallel with the normal
+ international ones, in order to attract more people from our country and
+ promote the OOo adoption.</p>
+ <hr />
+
+ <h2>Mandatory Information</h2>
+
+ <h3>Location (country, city, conference center/university)</h3>
+
+ <p>Two structures are at disposal for the organization: The Palazzo del
+ Popolo Conference Centre and the Palazzo dei Sette. They are both located
+ in the heart of the city, within walking distance from the main hotels.
+ They are all equipped with wireless-lan (for each participant),
+ amplification systems, audiovisual systems for projection and recording,
+ teleconferencing systems.</p>
+
+ <p>Every speech will be recorded in audio and video and a videostreaming
+ service for the OOoCon will be setup.</p>
+
+ <p>Several rooms will be available for public and private group
+ meetings.</p>
+
+ <p>Structures are close together and located in the city center where
+ people can walk around and enjoy several pubs, restaurants and shops
+ available.</p>

+ <h3>Large local OpenOffice.org deployments (for user keynotes and success

+ many others smaller PA (municipalities).</p>
+
+ <p>Interesting experience is the Chamber of Deputies which are migrating
