Re: [Debconf-discuss] Zagreb <--> Banja Luka

We understand your concerns but from our perspective things doesn't look so disorganized. Yes there is still a lot of missing points but at least there are well defined general guidelines about travel. Zagreb --> Banja Luka are very well connected with buses so even if you come to Zagreb without any preparation, you would not have any difficulty comming to Banja Luka. (Although i believe you will have all necessary guidelines on time.) Just please don't make panic.

Also, today Adnan presented DebConf11 organization at ODRS/CLUC event in Zagreb (www.dorscluc.org) and invited more more people to join travel team and help with those issues in case you are coming via Zagreb. People ware very interested in DebConf11 today so i have no doubt there will be some volunteers from Zagreb helping about this issue.

I really have no idea how the DebConf location selection process works,
but surely someone could have noticed that these questions aren't easily
answerable in the first place, before the location was selected, which was
a fair bit earlier th an two months ago if I recall correctly? I mean,
seriously, did nobody spend a bit of time clicking around, trying to book
a dozen simple rides to the place from various places all on a specific
date? If not, well then, why are we even talking about this? :)

I googled the process now and found:
http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/LocationCheckList#Choice_of_city_.2F_town_.2F_whatever
Matters of electronics purchase and smoking are listed as more important
than proximity to air transport.
Also at http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/PriorityList travel logistics is on the
penultimate place. So, things are actually a lot better compared to these
inferior prerequisites? :|
