[Debconf-team] Balmer's - checklist questions/disability access

[Daniel Pocock <daniel@pocock.com.au>]

I ran the checklist questions past Balmer's, they've come back to us
with the following detail:

hostel building: over 100 years old, they can therefore make no
commitment to compete with a modern purpose-built building on ease of access

motel tents: as these are all at ground level, they may or may not be
suitable.  We need to evaluate for ourselves.

I don't want to guess at the special needs of people in wheelchairs and
all the other types of disability.  Do we have anyone in the team who
can scrutinize this properly and help us make the right planning based
on this information?

I'm bringing my camera on Friday so we can photograph the facilities,
particularly the tent site facilities, for other people to review.

Balmer's have told me that one of the smaller hostels in Interlaken does
specifically assist disabled guests, and we may also need to consider
whether it is a reasonable distance, whether some people would mind
being accommodated at a separate site, etc.

Regards,

Daniel
