[Debconf-team] Interlaken - alternative
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
I've just visited Interlaken this morning.
My initial impression is that:
a) it is a viable alternative - it is not necessarily cheaper, but it
would work just as well as Le Camp
b) there may be more flexibility in the contract - no need to pay for
empty beds or meals. We can book now, and then give final figures
(bed counts, etc) in March perhaps. The price per bed would be fixed
now, but the total contract price would be fixed when we give the
final numbers.
c) no single site will provide all services needed. Hostels and
hotels can provide all accommodation, very scalable. There are also a
range of meeting venues, including some military buildings which are
sometimes used for expos and parties and are unlikely to be as
expensive as the world-reknowned `Congress Centre'.
I'm happy to spend more time researching and documenting this
alternative - but if there is any outright objection to this, or if
someone is about to sign another contract (which doesn't appear to be
the case), then please let me know.
