Hi all,
The Wine Project is happy to announce that WineConf 2018 will take
place on June 29 - July 1 2018 in The Hague, The Netherlands. As some
of you will undoubtedly be aware, this will coincide with the 25th
anniversary of Wine.
WineConf is the Wine Project's yearly conference, where members of the
Wine community, the broader Free Software community and interested
users meet up over food and drinks. We traditionally also have a
number of talks by attendees, as well as some formal and informal
discussions about anything vaguely Wine related.
We're still working out some of the details, but since this years'
WineConf will take place slightly earlier in the year than has
traditionally been the case, we'd like to give everyone sufficient
advance notice to make travel arrangements, in particular those of you
that would need Visas to travel to The Hague.
Subscribe to wineconf(a)winehq.org to stay up-to-date with further
developments. Information will also get added to
https://wiki.winehq.org/WineConf2018 as it becomes available. Should
you have any questions, feel free to send an e-mail to either
wineconf(a)winehq.org or me personally, and we'll do our best to come up
with an answer.

Those of us that will already be in The Hague on Friday afternoon will
have the opportunity to go on a guided city tour through The Hague.
I'd like to encourage first-time attendees in particular to
participate, since this will be a good opportunity to get to know each
other ahead of the main conference.
Tours take about 90 minutes, and there are two tours: "The
Constitution Walk" [1] and "Dutch politics and history" [2]. We'd
likely start the first tour sometime around 15:00, and if there's
interest I can make a dinner reservation for the evening. This would
result in the following tentative programme:
14:30 Gather at the hotel lobby
14:45 Leave the hotel lobby
15:00 Tour 1
16:45 Tour 2
18:30 Dinner
Costs are € 200 per group, per tour, and groups have a maximum size of
25 persons. Depending on the group size, that would be approximately €
10–15 per person, per tour. If you'd like to participate in any of
these, please let me know by sending me an e-mail at
hverbeet(a)codeweavers.com with the following information before May 14:
- Which of these you'd like to participate in: the "The
Constitution Walk" tour, the "Dutch politics and history" tour, and/or
the evening dinner.
- The number of persons that will be participating.
- Any restrictions on your side. E.g., in case you won't be at the
hotel before a certain time, or only want to participate in case a
certain minimum number of other people do, etc.
