24
In the rooms of [http://www.in-berlin.de/ IN-Berlin e.V.], Lehrter Str. 53, 10557 Berlin, Germany, the Universe.
25
26
The meeting / seminar / conference room at IN-Berlin is located on ground floor and has windows facing east.
27
In front of those windows is a road + sidewalk which is directly in north-south direction,
28
i.e. it ''may'' be possible to set up some (GPS, Thuraya, etc.) antennas on the sidewalk, if required.
29
Some kind of pole+stand is required, though.

31
== Format ==
32
33
The format of this workshop is not formal lectures/talks.  It's more like "guided discussions", i.e. there are
34
topics and each topic will get an "owner" who should introduce the topic and lead the discussion related to it.

=== Avoiding dehydration during the day ===
75
76
IN-Berlin has a fridge with a selection of cold beverages (lemonades, club mate, water, beers) available to be purchased
77
at extremely low prices (about 1 EUR / bottle).  There are tea and coffee-making facilities.  They also carry some candy-bar
78
type snacks.  There are several supermarkets within walking distance from the venue, if you'd like to bring your own.
79
80
=== Lunch ===
81
82
Lunch catering will be brought into IN-Berlin every day.  Sponsoring for this will be provided by [http://sysmocom.de/ sysmocom GmbH].
83
84
=== Dinner ===
85
86
Last year there were some complaints that dinner was not organized.  Even if there is no sponsoring, it would have been useful to
87
at least have some reservations.  We will take this recommendation and organize something.

== Travel ==
91
92
=== Airports ===
93
Berlin has two active airports during OsmoDevCon2014: Tegel (TXL) and Schoenefeld (SXF).  TXL is closer to the venue.

You can take long distance trains to ''Berlin Hauptbahnhof'' (main station), which is only 15mins walking (or 3 bus stops) from the venue.

102
103
=== Car ===
104
105
There is some public parking in Lehrter Str., where IN-Berlin is located, but it is quite crowded.  Parking your car might
106
not be easy, but not as bad as at C-Base last year.
107
108
== Accomodation ==
