In the rooms of [http://www.in-berlin.de/ IN-Berlin e.V.], Lehrter Str. 53, 10557 Berlin, Germany, the Universe.

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.

79
80
IN-Berlin has a fridge with a selection of cold beverages (lemonades, club mate, water, beers) available to be purchased
81
at extremely low prices (about 1 EUR / bottle).  There are tea and coffee-making facilities.  They also carry some candy-bar
82
type snacks.  There are several supermarkets within walking distance from the venue, if you'd like to bring your own.
83
84
=== Lunch ===
85
86
Lunch catering will be brought into IN-Berlin every day.  Sponsoring for this will be provided by [http://sysmocom.de/ sysmocom GmbH].
87
88
=== Dinner ===
89
90
Last year there were some complaints that dinner was not organized.  Even if there is no sponsoring, it would have been useful to
91
at least have some reservations.  We will take this recommendation and organize something.
92

== Travel ==
95
96
=== Airports ===
97

=== Car ===
108
109
There is some public parking in Lehrter Str., where IN-Berlin is located, but it is quite crowded.  Parking your car might

not be easy, but not as bad as at C-Base two years ago.
