 I haven’t booked my plane tickets yet, so I don’t know exactly, and it
 also depends on what everyone else wants.  :-)  I think we’d have no
 shortage of things to talk about, though.

 Would it be possible to tentatively book the room for the whole day,
 like 9AM to 6PM, and adjust later as we see fit?

I don’t know, but I’ll try to figure something out.  I’ve never eaten
out in that part of Berlin.  There are a few more restaurants a few
S-Bahn stops away, though.

Okay, I'll be there. Time is fixed to circa 9AM - 6PM? I could
try and meet with one of my berlin contacts in the late evening
afterwards.

I have no specific topics in mind, but I have a long term and
short term roadmap of my live-system based on and integrated into
GuixSD I'd like to try to talk about a bit and maybe get some
input. Try, because currently there's nothing but what I
contribute and work towards, and ideas and issues on our
(currently still non-public) issue tracker. It's just nothing
long to talk about and no slides or anything at all, just
content, phases separation, potential issues etc.

I'm not very often in Berlin, is there some food option for
vegans somewhere around the e-Lok?

I’d like to chat about ways to make our importers smarter, about
automation of updates, and maybe about how to handle bulk imports from
CRAN and Bioconductor.

I’ll be there early to get the keys and open up the room.  Should we go
out for lunch/dinner on that day?  If so, any preferences?  (Indian

I’ve talked to the administration of the youth club “e-Lok” and they say
we could use their media room from 10AM to 6PM.  The “e-Lok” is where
the FSFE Berlin group usually meets once a month.  It’s within 5 minutes

I've been there after a conference and it was irritating. All
similar places I've been to have a no-smoke policy and people go
outside. If the rooms you suggested are no-smoke it would be
great.

I was thinking of either the IN-Berlin rooms or the e-Lok (where we have
our FSFE gatherings).  e-Lok is close to Ostkreuz station.

I’ve only been to cbase once after the FSFE summit and people smoke
there.  I prefer indoor air to be without smoke.

A couple of us will be in Berlin in December for the reproducible build
summit, so I was wondering if there’d be interest in having a Guix
gathering in Berlin on Dec. 12th.  It would be an opportunity to meet in
