Hi again Sprinters,

Since the sprint is not only about work but also about socializing with 
the other developers that you work with remotely all year long, we need 
to look into the social and food program.

* Monday night:

This one is set in stone already. For those of you who arrive early 
there will be an "OSGeo-Québec 5 à 7 / Code Sprint Ice breaker" on 
Monday March 14th at 5pm.

We have booked some space for this on the 2nd floor of 
http://www.mcleanspub.com/ (1210 Peel St) a short 450m walk South on 
Peel Street from the hotel.

* Food options (for dinners):

I have two interesting food options to suggest, but nothing is booked 
with them yet:

- Le Milsa (http://www.lemilsa.com/lemilsa/index.html) offers a 
Brazilian "Churrasco": an all you can eat meat experience that you'll 
remember, also includes animation from Brazilian dancers. Do we have 
many vegetarians in the group? Unless there are objections I'm thinking 
we must have dinner there for one of the nights. (It's a 10-15 minutes 
walk from the Sprint location)

- Boccacinos Restaurant Bar (http://www.boccacinos.com/) ... I had lunch 
there last week and it was great.  It is located next door to "Les 3 
Brasseurs" (http://www.les3brasseurs.ca/), a very nice pub / 
micro-brewery... I mention that just in case for those who might feel 
like having "a last one for the road" after dinner. ;)

Oh, and ...

- A little while ago Jeff also mentioned The Peel Pub (not far from 
McLean's Pub where we'll be on Monday), so I guess that could be an 
option for one of the nights as well.

Any comments, preferences, suggestions of other places?
