The Waltroper Parkfest <URL:http://www.waltroper-parkfest.de> runs from August 29th to August 31st. It is an excellent diversion for accompanying guests and participants, though no participants actually were inclined to go there in 2012. For German-speaking participants, let me quote Das Waltroper Parkfest findet 2014 an den letzten drei Augusttagen statt. Highlights des Ostvest-Kulturspektakels auf vier Bühnen sind Auftritte von Juli, Hennes Bender, Brings und Too Strong, sowie eine gemeinsame Show der NDW-Stars Markus, Geier Sturzflug, Hubert Kah und Fräulein Menke. Putting the meeting in parallel with the Parkfest in a similar manner as last time would place it on August 28th to September 2nd, with the start and end days mostly being for arrival and departure. The disadvantage is that the availability of external accommodation may be strained during the Parkfest so one should book soon enough if that is desired. Camping on our premises is possible, and we can accommodate a number of people in the house, particularly if they have sleeping bags of their own. > Apart from that I have an idea about a beautiful and appropriate > location in Stuttgart I could ask for. I don't know about "appropriate" but the surroundings here _are_ rather scenic. Judging from the last meeting, nobody can bother with going outside anyway as long as the Internet is up. And we've more than doubled our bandwidth as compared to last time when it was at 1Mbps. This year's bird sightings on the premises include cuckoos, great tits, white wagtails, green woodpeckers, black redstarts, barn swallows, spotted flycatchers, magpies, yellowhammers, buzzards and a number of others. If there is sufficient interest, I'd be quite willing to host another meeting. Waltrop is north of Dortmund in the Ruhr area. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
