[Can ignore if you're not attending the Hackfest!]
Hi All,
Some information about the Hackfest venue, and a request for your dietary requirements...
== Venue == The Hackfest venue will be in the Evans Room at Devonshire Hall in the Hyde Park area of Leeds [1]. It is a traditional "Oxbridge style" stone-built hall. Our meeting room will accommodate 10 delegates.
== Catering == A buffet lunch will be provided each day. I will suggest that we break for lunch at 1300 each day, unless there are any objections. Please let me know by tomorrow if you have any special dietary requirements.
There will also be an unlimited supply of tea, coffee and biscuits. Sugar, milk and soy milk will be provided.
== Facilities == * Wireless networking * UK mains power (remember to bring your own socket adapters if you're coming from outside the UK!!) * Data projector & screen * Flipchart and pens
== Nearby amenities == There are a few pubs, bars, cafes and coffee shops 5 minutes walk away from the venue if we want a change of scenery. There is also a small convenience store.
The venue is located on the Woodhouse Ridge nature trail if you want to step out for some fresh air [2].
== Local contact == I live within walking distance of the venue. Send me a message if you get stuck! I'll also be free on the Sunday evening before the Hackfest if anyone would like to meet for food/drink in Leeds City Centre.
Best wishes,
Alex
