Space is not really an issue.

I would organize it together with Julius and perhaps some others. The
main thing we need from 'Wine' are 2 people who can give a
presentation and what it should be about. I'll try to ask some people
around here for input.

At least I will be there (and can't say for others). I also talked a
bit with Julius and Hans and likely we will eat somewhere in the
center of Enschede at least on Saturday. The restaurants on the campus
(or close to here) can be good as well but in the center you also have
some pubs and it has a nicer atmosphere.

Finally if we would need some funds for this (I don't think it is
needed but in the worst case we might need at max 200 euro or so
perhaps for drinks or other things), would the Wine Fund be able to
assist?
