Re: Debian Med sprint II in Southport, UK - any objections to the last weekend in January?

[Olivier Sallou <olivier.sallou@irisa.fr>]

There are some trains from Manchester airport to Southport.
If location can be next a low-cost hub.... Manchester is ok for me, but
all depends on each one location.

I will come if I can find the budget...  ;-)
