Yay! I'll be flying in from Germany or Japan. What is the recommend way to travel from Heathrow (I suppose it will be). I guess train from Germany is also an option. There are a few options. The cheapest way of getting to Cambridge from Heathrow is the bus (national express). This is quite convenient, as it leaves from the airport and arrives in the middle of Cambridge, but it's also the slowest. The fastest is to take the Heathrow Express from Heathrow to Paddington, then take the underground from Paddington to Kings Cross, then take the train from Kings Cross to Cambridge. I don't really like this because it involves two changes and both of them involve walking from one end of a station to the other. The best compromise in terms of effort, cost and speed is usually to take the tube from Heathrow to Kings Cross (which takes about an hour, so bring a book...) and then the train from Kings Cross to Cambridge. For the trains to Cambridge, make sure you look at the board at Kings Cross that tells you when the fastest train to various destinations is. Some trains are direct, some stop at a load of small stations along the way. The direct trains take about 45-50 minutes, the slow ones take about an hour and a half, so waiting 10 minutes can often get you there half an hour earlier. If you're coming from Germany, you have two other choices, depending on where you are. If you can take the Eurostar, it arrives in Kings Cross, so you just change there and go straight to Cambridge. Alternatively, you may be able to fly into London Stansted, which is not too far from Cambridge. There are busses and trains, which take a similar amount of time (again, the bus arrives closer to the city centre than the train).

It doesn't really matter. 2) Would you prefer student accommodation (cheap, and we can put everyone in the same college), or fellows guest rooms (3-day limit, nicer rooms, limited availability) I'd prefer something relatively cheap. But I can pay a bit more if needed. Cheers, Quentin. ___ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
[RFC] Cambridge Hackathon
Hi, So far I have interest in the Cambridge hackathon from (in no particular order): Me (obviously) Quentin, Gregory, Fred (not needing accommodation?), Niels, Slivnik (not needing accommodation) Richard, Johannes I'd like to start chasing accommodation this week, so two questions for people are planning on attending (if you're not on the list above, just let me know): 1) Is mid-week a weekend, or some overlap more convenient? 2) Would you prefer student accommodation (cheap, and we can put everyone in the same college), or fellows guest rooms (3-day limit, nicer rooms, limited availability) David ___ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev

That really depends on the actual date ... in the abstract I guess it doesn't much matter to me. 2) Would you prefer student accommodation (cheap, and we can put everyone in the same college), or fellows guest rooms (3-day limit, nicer rooms, limited availability) I'm all in favour of cheap. ___ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev

It would be great to find some other date for it. Whether we have the meeting during the week or over the weekend is of no concern to me. I hope to be in the UK for two weeks of holiday and will be able to make it anyway. (Apart from that last weekend in June). You should put some numbers to the rooms, to make it easier to decide. And if these are rooms within some of the older colleges I may even decide to stay there as well. In which case I would need a double room.

Re: [RFC] Cambridge Hackathon
I am also potentially interested in attending the hackathon, although it remains to be seen if I am able to attend. It is possible that I know this only a very short time before the event. For accommodation I wouldn't need much, I have a sleeping bag and a sleeping pad so some space on the floor somewhere would be sufficient for me. cheers, Lars Am 26.03.2013 um 15:21 schrieb David Chisnall: Hi, So far I have interest in the Cambridge hackathon from (in no particular order): Me (obviously) Quentin, Gregory, Fred (not needing accommodation?), Niels, Slivnik (not needing accommodation) Richard, Johannes I'd like to start chasing accommodation this week, so two questions for people are planning on attending (if you're not on the list above, just let me know): 1) Is mid-week a weekend, or some overlap more convenient? 2) Would you prefer student accommodation (cheap, and we can put everyone in the same college), or fellows guest rooms (3-day limit, nicer rooms, limited availability) David ___ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev ___ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
