==== X2GoHackTrain 2014 - cancelled :-( ====
Thanks to German Rail retiring (in Blade Runner style) the heritage railbusses from service, there will be no X2GoHackTrain in 2014. :'( Had they been available, a combination of train ride, BBQ at a lake side, and an optional short hike would have been planned.

Replacement Event: X2Go: The Gathering 2014 @ Linuxhotel (see above)
