12
As such, the primary audience is people who have been contributing to at least one of the Osmocom projects.
13
14
It is *not targeted at users*.
15
16
Attendance requires registration (see below) and notification of acceptance.  There number of participants
17
is limited to about 20.

In the rooms of "IN-Berlin e.V.":http://www.in-berlin.de/, Lehrter Str. 53, 10557 Berlin, Germany, the Universe.
33
34
The meeting / seminar / conference room at IN-Berlin is located on ground floor and has windows facing east.
35
In front of those windows is a road + sidewalk which is directly in north-south direction,
36
i.e. it _may_ be possible to set up some (GPS, Thuraya, etc.) antennas on the sidewalk, if required.
37
Some kind of pole+stand is required, though.

h2. Format
41
42
43
The format of this workshop is not primarily formal lectures/talks.  It's more like "guided discussions", i.e. there are
44
topics and each topic will get an "owner" who should introduce the topic and lead the discussion related to it.
