Log:
incorporated and edited logistic infos that Samuele forwarded me 
from Jacob.  Next time, please just check things in yourself, 
there is no need to route this through my mailbox. 

I think we should try to send out this announcement real soon 
now, it has been dragging on some weeks to long, if you ask me, 
considering that we knew the time and basic place of the sprint 
since early May if not earlier. 

So please review the announcement and correct/fix/comment it 
so we can send things out on the weekend.

-Accomodation, Location and meeting points
------------------------------------------- 
+Location & Accomodation  
+------------------------ 
+
+The sprint will be held in the former Math Center building
+near the crossing of Gibraltargatan and Eklandagatan. Entrance
+is on the middle of the side facing Gibraltargatan. The doors
+to the building are normally locked, so you need the phone number
+of somebody inside to get in. Instructions on whom to call will be
+posted on the door.
+
+The sprint will be co-located with several other sprints. See the 
+`EuroPython Wiki`_, to find out what other sprints will be running.
+
+Nearest, and probably cheapest is to book accomodation at SGS Veckobostäder
+through the Europython website. This option will be available until about
+20 June.
+
+.. _`EuroPython Wiki`: http://www.europython.org/sections/sprints_and_wiki
+
+Exact times 
+-----------
+
+The public Pypy sprint is held Friday 1st July - Thursday 7 July 2005.
+Hours will be from 09:00 until people have had enough. It's a good 
+idea to arrive a day before the sprint starts.   
+
+(There is a sprint for people who are familiar with the Pypy codebase
+before Europython as well. This will be held at Jacob & Laura's home
+on Götabergsgatan 22.)
+
+
+Network, Food, currency 
+------------------------ 
+
+Sweden is not part of the Euro zone. One SEK (krona in singular, kronor
+in plural) is roughly 1/10th of a Euro (9.15 SEK to 1 Euro).
+
+There are some pizzerias, kebab places and the like close to the venue.
+Their food is edible and cheap, but not very good. For good food, you need to
+go downtown.
+
+You need a wirless network card to access the network. You will be 
+issued a login to the Chalmers NOMAD network. This will allow you to 
+use access points all over Chalmers.  However, we can likely provide 
+a wireless/ethernet bridge.  
+
+Sweden uses the same kind of plugs as Germany. 230V AC.
+
+Registration etc.pp.

+yourself and post a note that you want to come and ask any questions!
