Unfortunately probably not=2E The = room capacity is 90 with tables or ~150 without tables, but that's provided= no other events apply for the same slot and end up sharing the space (appa= rently dividing walls can up to quarter it)=2E

Assuming we don't sha= re it - usually Akademy two tracks, it would need to be at least divided in= to two leaving us with two quite small rooms=2E It also doesn't cover expo = space, BoF rooms, =2E=2E=2E Plus the time slots are all shorter than Akadem= y is=2E

It's basically a potentially super-sized sprint venue but no= t quite Akademy tier=2E


Cheers,
Eike

Dear community,

Happy new year!

R= ecently, we've gotten approached a few times with offers of venues for
= KDE events/sprints=2E One such case was the MBition office, which resulted =
in the recent Frameworks 6 sprint held there=2E Another is the foss-nor= th
2020 Community Day, which Adriaan sent an email about not too long a= go=2E

In addition to these, we've recently been made aware that DIN = e=2EV=2E (a
well-established German organization maintaining important = industry
norms/standards) have a large venue in central Berlin they're = offering
to make available to open source events in three seperate time= frames in
2020, which we think is very compelling=2E

I've added = a new section in the sprint wiki collecting dates and venues
that are "= up for grabs":

https://community=2Ekde=2Eorg/Sprints= #Need_a_sprint_venue=2E3F_Check_here=2E21

If you have a need for= a sprint this year and don't have a venue yet,
please consider these= =2E If you're interested in a venue that doesn't have
a kde=2Eorg conta= ct listed (e=2Eg=2E for foss-north, Adriaan is already
coordinating our= presence there), please open a thread on the community
list to keep ev= eryone in the loop, or if you need additional info or
help with the app= lication=2E

If you have an amazing venue and want KDE to fill it wit= h life, don't
hesitate to add yourself to the list, either=2E :-)

Cheers,
Eike
