I personally preferred the Berlin venue despite not staying at the expensive venue hotel. This is because there was a cheaper hotel within walking distance while most hotel options in Rotterdam required taking the metro. Having a hotel within 500m of the venue meant that I could pretty easily go back and forth during the day. If the Rotterdam venue had good hotel options within 500m that would have been fine with me. -Cynthia On Sun, 28 May 2023, 11:42 Alex de Joode, <alex@idgara.nl> wrote:
RIPE86 has closed,
so first congratulations to Raymond, Maria and Harald!
Second thanks to the RIPE NCC for organising a marvellous event (even if in Rotterdam ;) and a lunch without nasi and sateh :( ). This time the event venue and hotel's were separate, as this also was the largest RIPE ever, we might see this a new way to do meetings. Personally I feel having a 'event hotel' gives me more of a community feeling. Would be nice if we could have some data concerning this (do ppl not care as some might opt for cheaper hotels anyways, do they have a preference for one/other).
Third, as to the GM results, could the RIPE NCC give some background on the actual numbers for the votes of the charging scheme? Did option D receive a clear majority, or only in the run-off? This might be very relevant for finding the way forward.
