Hi,


regarding the "expenses" for keynoters. For now we do not have any 
issues on that, but i guess, we definitely could offer to take over 
travel costs and eventually one overnight, if the keynoter requests.

Also, there is still the discussion with Deutsche Bahn, who want to 
sponsor and potentially offered us two handfull of free tickets, we 
could also use to get the keynoters here - at least from their airport.



Regards, Till
