Considering that you would like to be in Zagreb at 7:25 and are mentioning a bus at 03:15: My guess is that you probably will not find so many attendees who would like to share and pay such an early bus. No - but it's a public bus that runs anyway. The fewer people that want to use up places the better :-) I've already had someone sugesting a shared taxi. And since you are speaking yourself of a 3:15 bus I wonder whether your name on the Wiki list makes any sense. Well, given that the 6am bus does not run on Sunday, there might be quite a few people that end up wanting the 03:15. I thought if everyone put their requirements down then it should be fairly clear to people what needed to be arranged. i.e it'd be useful to know if there are 4 or 15 people who need to be in Zagreb before 11:55 (which without extra buses means catching the 03:15). (I also wonder if you have enough safety time planned - 4:10 hours might be a bit dense.) It is a bit tight, but the timetable says it should be there by 6:00, so allegedly I have 1:15 slack (plus 10 mins to run to Train station).

Quoting Martín Ferrari (martin.ferr...@gmail.com): Andreas, et al. I just wanted to point out that the company we contracted to come from Zagreb, were really friendly and helpful. They might have delayed us a little, but it was good overall. The price was 275 euro per bus that can carry 8 people. The company is connecto-taxi.com, phone +385 21 312 595, and they speak English. If you cannot fill an integer number of buses, there is taxis that costed 160 euro from Zagreb, and you can put 3 people on them. From the number that already registered on the RentABus page (51 ppl last time I checked), it's quite likely that we can fill in one and probably two large buses. So, the main point is to be sure that this is the option we choose. I guess that many ppl haven't registered in this page, yet. So, I'm fairly sure that the number may raise up to 100 ppl. As a consequence, the plan could be renting a large bus leaving at about 8:00am (thus reaching ZAG around 11:00-12:00) and another leaving around 11:00. I'll be busy most of the day preparing the CW but I think Andreas and/or Ian will keep an eye on all this. ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss

+++ Andreas Tille [2011-07-23 23:23 +0200]: Hi, I prepared a Wiki page to collect names of people interested in renting a bus for the main departure day: http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf11/Departures/RentABus The deal is that we (=those people who want to use this bus) will share the cost for rental to make sure we will not blow the capacity of usual public transport. We just clarified that such a bus (or two busses depending on how many people want to use it) can be arranged. Please hurry up adding your name to the list - those who come late might be in need to use public transportation. It sounds like you have this well under control, but on the way here I mentioned that it would be very busy on the 31st to the bus driver, who gave me his card in order to phone up and discuss capacaties/extra bus, so I feel I should write this down just in case it's useful: Pepeks 098/9830-589 098/9830-592 (BUS) 098/417-140 I'm assuming the 03:15 bus won't be oversubscribed...

Re: [Debconf-discuss] Busses for departure
When I took the public bus today, I saw a larger bus from Banja Luka in front of us while waiting at the boarder. The bus was from Bocac Tours. Might be worth asking them for a quote (probably best if a local could ring, so they don't quote tourist rates). -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss
