Hi,

first an answer from my side to the meeting question, sorry I have no time
for that. Until end of September I am busy travelling for my work, I will
give updates here to the list and think that's enough. If Mario has the
time to do it....

Ok update: we have spoken with the administraton of rooms at the university
and we think we have found the lecture room. It's the so called
"Felix-Klein-Hörsaal"
which is in the Paulineum exact behind the circle window.

http://www.bioinf.uni-leipzig.de/conference-registration/12symposium/de/Veranstaltungsort.html

There are still some things to solve, as we will be in the lecture free
time, the building isnt open the whole day. So to change that, there must
be asked the head of the room administration (which answers traditionally
no to such questions) and that's the chancellor himself.

For workshops and meetings and so on, we can have rooms in the
"Seminargebäude" across the yard but there is an alternative to it, the
fakulty of computer science shows interest to give us there rooms. That's
the building directly next to Paulineum from where an passage exists. But
we have to look to the rooms first.

so thats all for now


+1 to Greg "someone" should use its power and change the IRC topic
