- | * one-day BBQ in Ulm, like the original 2012 plan ("pure fun" gathering; no electricity, | ||
- | <note important> | ||
- | * Pros: Location, BBQ Coal, etc. provided by BAUR-ITCS, sleepover is free | ||
- | * Cons: no "work and play" gathering | ||
- | </ | ||
- | * two- or three-day event at LinuxHotel, Essen ("work and play" gathering; grid power, wifi, hotel style rooms, youth hostel-like service, recreational facilities available, sightseeing tours/group entertainment available in the evening) - **X2Go@Essen2014** | ||
- | <note important> | ||
- | * Pros: Located pretty much in the center of Germany, equal distance for all German-based participants of the core dev team, Mike#1 would most likely be able to take part, very low rate for rooms | ||
- | * Cons: Not free-as-in-beer, | ||
- | </ | ||
- | * two- or three-day event at Forsthaus Treuchtlingen, | ||
- | <note important> | ||
- | * Pros: Organized by Heinz himself, Alex would probably be able to take part due to the proximity | ||
- | * Cons: Most likely too far away for Mike#1, again :-(, hotel accomodation at regular rates (or at least way more expensive than at LinuxHotel), | ||

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. | 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. | ||
