Goals

I want to say drink beer! But that is a bad idea if we really want to get something done. For me, an important goal is to get a good set of basic clients. Conversations for Android combined with converse is a really good start. On the IOS front, it is kind of dramatic. Chatsecure is in my opinion still the best option out there. Also, we can look at it is an option to make a client based on a platform like ionic for mobile.

A good basic set of good XMPP clients for mobile is in my eyes an important step to get the XMPP community to the next step. There is time this to have discussions about this.

Venue

We are planning to use our office. This is based in the building of Security Delta (https://www.thehaguesecuritydelta.com). This a nice place with a fast internet connection. We can easily accommodate around 10 people. And we have of course a fridge filled with cold beer! We have a barbecue so one evening we can definitely barbecue if the weather is good.

Accommodation

For the sleeping arrangement there a plenty of options available. We have some Hostels available in The Haque.

Or you can book a cheap hotel. The available option are:

• Easyhotel (City Centre)
• The Hague Teleport Hotel

I would suggest easy hotel because it is close to the city centre and with public transport.

Access

The office is really close by the station The Hague LOI.

There are different options to come to The Haque:

• CAR

We have a couple of parking space available make sure you notify before so we can reserve them.

• BUS

You can take the FLIXBUS to The Haque Central Station. From there it is a 5-minute train ride to the office.

• AIRPLANE

Schiphol airport is 20-minute train drive from the office or another option is The Hague Rotterdam Airport. This is 20 minutes by bus.

Participants

We want to put the participation deadline on Sunday the 26 of May. This way we know how much food and drinks we need to get etc.
