There is a team working on an email to all attendees, that will tell you
what to do.
Everything I say here should be in that email.

Your taxi can take you straight to the entrance to the Fuller building
(the residence we are using for accommodation).
It's on Residence Road, UCT Upper Campus, Rondebosch

I am not sure where the front desk will be hanging out during DebCamp.
But from the 27th, it should be located in Menzies room 11A.
Menzies is on Engineering Mall.

That's not really accurate.
DebConf will be in Menzies, with some hacklabs in Snape. DebCamp will be
using those same hacklabs, as well as some in Fuller (probably).

I think the airport will give you 30 mins (50MiB) free WiFi, with email
/ SMS verification required.

I'd recommend the Woolworths at the airport.
