 Hi,

 Are ATMs in the Gdansk requires handling charge, aside from the
 amount you withdraw? As far as I remember, that of Buenos Aires
 and Ho Chi Minh City charged withdrawal. (e.g. If you withdraw
 10 zloti, it'd be recorded as withdrawal of 12 zloti.)

it depends on your bank, not ATM provvider.

 Does anybody know we could easily find ATMs around the venue or downtown
 or airport? I hope so (all the time), but I can't forget that Borg El
 Arab Airport,
 outskirts of Alexandria, did not prepare that.

here is the map of ATMs around the venue:

 interested in getting a prepaid card in Poland for my smartphone to do both

Re: [Wikimania-l] Registration still not open...

 I am getting very concerned about the registration for GdaƄsk still
 not being open. It is now just a little more than a month until the
 start of the conference. Last year registration opened nearly two
 months before the start and in 2008 it opened well over two months
 before the start. Can someone involved with the organisation tell us
 when registration is going to open? I'm not the first person to ask
 this question, but we don't seem to have received an answer yet.

 Thanks,

Tom,
