[Foss4g2009] Code Sprint

[Janelle Driscoll]

There seems to have been a lot of discussions since this e-mail was
sent. I will not start looking for a venue until a receive confirmation
of what kind of venue you are looking for, what days you would like for
the code sprint and if you would like Tour Hosts to look for a venue or
if the OC will be doing this.

Kind Regards

Janelle,
For the code sprint, I see it being a 3 day event:
Sat : 50 to 70 people
Sun & Mon: 30 to 40 people

I reckon there is a good chance we will be able to make use of one of 
the local universities if we talk to the right people.
Lets see what options we have open to us before we consider using the 
LISAsoft offices.

There will likely be 5 to 15 people say the whole week, but that can be 
handled in LISAsoft offices.
