Registration
Registration will most likely be through Mensys. It is not yet clear how much will be charged, as we do not know yet what will be included in the registration fee. In the survey that we did before announcing the workshop, almost all participants agreed that paying a bit more to have some developers from eastern Europe participating is OK.
We are currently trying to get a VISA for at least one developer from the Ukraine.
We promise to explain to the last EURO how the registration money is spend and how the registration fee was calculated. We are not trying to make any money with this workshop!
Workshop Program
We will be offering short "introduction to a topic" style sessions as well as larger "detailed information" sessions. We are currently in the process of creating the workshop program.
