i think you should do this. someone who has some clout should drop a line to these people: http://www.blug.linux.no/ tell them what date we will arrive, ask them if having enough outlets and a good internet connection in a nice smoking room (that also has a nice non-smoking closet for simon and drc). ask them for directions to the building and maybe a list of available guest housing for about 20 miserly people. you are The GIMP developers, i should think anyone would be happy to be selected as the location of GIMPCon2. also, this is a respectable and fun lug, imo. check this out: http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/writeup.html photo album here: http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/vegard_bilder/ the area is beautiful: http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/vegard_bilder/tn/18pigeon_sitting.jpg.html and the natives seem to know how to roll: http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/vegard_bilder/tn/13packet_one_rolling.jpg.html also, it is my impression that the food is edible: http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/vegard_bilder/tn/34dinner.jpg.html (i dunno what that orange stuff is though ...) anyone know a date? anyone have some clout and a good track record with email? carol _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
