Four ''full'' days of hacking Aug 14, 15, 16, 17 in Potsdam, NY towards | Four ''full'' days of hacking Aug 14, 15, 16, 17 in Potsdam, NY, right after Wikimania 2017, towards the "offlining" aims [[#Agenda|outlined below!]] This will be similar to [http://wiki.kiwix.org/wiki/Hackathon_Wikimania_2016 http://wiki.kiwix.org/wiki/Hackathon_Wikimania_2016] in Esino Lario, Italy in June 2016, but with more globe-trotting field implementers represented (Internet-in-a-Box and similar). | ||
'''We ask that everyone spend all 5 nights in Potsdam, NY, immediately following [https://wikimania2017.wikimedia.org/wiki/Programme Wikimania 2017] in Montreal (Wikimania is Aug 9-13 2017), so that each and all of our 4 hack days and evening hospitality plans are relaxed & productive! In short: [[#Transportation|arrive in Potsdam, NY late Sunday Aug 13, and leave Potsdam, NY (2.5+ hour drive to the airport) on the morning of Friday Aug 18.]] | |||
Your departing flight should leave from Montreal's airport on Friday Aug 18, 2017, starting about midday. <u>Flights departing early morning will NOT be possible, as the drive from Potsdam to Montreal's airport is a full 2 hours, with delays very while entering Canada by road!</u> | |||
