Well, it's 4 hours by regular buses. Because they stop in every little city on the way. But by rented but it's more likely to be 3 hours (with stop) !!!. I understand, it's a trip. But it's a Day Trip too. > Vedran, if you're as motivated as you seem to be for having your place > visited and discovered, you really should focus on the weeks before > and after Debconf. I'm actually only offering this as alternative option and if there is enough interest i'm willing to help and to organize this visit for all of those who wish to visit Sarajevo. In this case i don't see Sarajevo as "my place" and i'm not doing this because of me! Please understand that. Sarajevo is one of most interesting places in this region and worth visiting. Weather it's because of it's Sarajevo's very rich history, culture diversities, good food, Sarajevo Film Festival or just good pubs. > I'm sure that, among the crowd of people who will visit Debconf, > several would be ready to spend 2-3 days going through Sarajevo.

I'm here for those who are interested. I'm in position to organize that and i believe that it would be very pleasant Day Trip. Last year after DC10 in NYC i stayed 15 more days in USA and visited Boston-WashingtonDC-Orlando-Miami... all that in 15 days. I know that going over see is not every year opportunity for me so i tried to use it as much as possible. And if i knew how Day Trip would be organized last year i would most likely use that day to visit few museums in NYC. So, i know that there are people that share my opinion and those who don't think like that. So i don't see it as a big deal to offer this. > > _______________________________________________ > Debconf-discuss mailing list > debconf-disc...@lists.debconf.org > http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss > _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
