For clarity: this may be multiple servers or VMs too, the encoding
software is capable of running on multiple nodes. Having said that,
virtualisation slows the transcoding down somewhat (especially the I/O
heavy bits of it), so it may be preferable to have bare material options
if they are available.

(we're using the same encoding software for FOSDEM, where it runs on 2
"storage" plus one "master" plus five "encoder slave" nodes all from the
same IaaS provider)

Guesstimate for food based on personal experience are:

breakfast: 2 USD
lunch: 4 USD
dinner: 4 USD


to all local team members, please help to update this price.

We can get picture from NCTU division of housing services [0].

[0] http://housing.sa.nctu.edu.tw/?page_id=1088=en

For accessibility, we shall reserve floor one for it, and I think mwei
has pictures for accessibility in dorm?

Will check it, but I think venue will be closed if it is typhoon day.

If there is a typhoon in Hsinchu, it will be a very strong typhoon
because Hsinchu tends to be the last region to declare typhoon day. We
shall not go out.

We probable can do these in accomodation.
