ok. You are right. I will delete it.

Looks like we (OSGeo - me, Steve from DataLab and other volunteers that 
still have to be found) is organizing the Code Sprint and the DataLab is 
providing the rooms. This time I would advise not to insist on other 
sponsors, as there are only low costs to cover (maybe we can take the 
money from the surplus from Bonn Code Sprint).

In the last mail I missed to put the link:
