Hi All, I've drafted a release for the GUADEC 2017 Manchester announcement. Please take a look and let me know if you have any edits or feedback. I hope to post this one on Monday, September 12th.
Thanks! Best, Nuritzi News <https://www.gnome.org/news/> September 9, 2016 GUADEC 2017 to take place in Manchester, UK It is with great pleasure that the GNOME Foundation announces next year’s GUADEC to be held in Manchester, United Kingdom during the summer of 2017. The GNOME User and Developer European Conference (GUADEC) brings together hundreds of users and developers every year to further the GNOME Project. It is one of the Foundation’s longest-standing and most noteworthy events. Manchester is located about 160 miles (260 km) northwest of London, with Manchester Airport providing easy access for international guests, as well as plenty of public transportation. It has a long history of being a place of learning and innovation, with over 20 Nobel prize winners having worked or studied in Manchester, Chetham library being the oldest library in the English-speaking world, and notable accomplishments like the splitting of the atom by Ernest Rutherford in the early 1900s. The GNOME Foundation looks forward to hosting the 2017 GUADEC in Manchester, and expects GUADEC 2017 to take place during the last weekend of July. Final dates will be announced in the upcoming months. [image: CC-BY-SA-3.0 Pete Birkinshaw] *Photo: Manchester Montage.
