Attendees List

The column "Sponsoring needed?" is to know if you need sponsoring or if you pay the travel/stay by yourself.

We do not know (yet) how the food will be (restaurant, catering etc...) but anyway the office is near a lot of fast food places (McDonals, Foster hollywood, Burger King, Other local stuff), so in any case it should be cheap.
