Hello all,
Some quick LAC2009 news.
The LAC2009 website now has some info on
travelling to and staying in Parma.
<http://lac.linuxaudio.org/2009/>
In the bed & breakfast category there is
one more which will be added soon:
DUCALE, Via Costituente 11, 43100 Parma
<http://digilander.libero.it/bbducale/>
If you look at the map on this website
(click on the foto), the CdM is very
near to the place marked 'Duomo'.
10-15 min from the conference site,
depending on your walking speed.
La Casa della Musica on Google maps:

Robin Gareus and Christoph Haag are working
on getting the registration page on line.

Hi,
La Casa della Musica on Google maps:
thanks for all the info so far.
As an osm hacker, I'd like to mention the following services.
Location at osm:
http://tinyurl.com/bvgwes
If you need a route in GPX format for your GPSr, you can use openrouteservice:
http://tinyurl.com/dlnhm4
The latter feature (passing a destination) just was released today. Pascal
Neis, the author, also stated that the service may be down from wednesday to
thursday this week.
Could someone check and confirm if the location in the above links is correct?

Wow, it's in Italia! I'd love to go. Alas, I can't; the airfare alone from SFO
to Milano would be around US$1000... there's no way I can come up with that kind of
money.
Also I've never been to Italy myself (sono io cento-per-cento italiano, ma nato a New
York), and I'm a bit afraid to go, since if I do, I might not ever want to come back.
*sigh*
Have fun, and enjoy the prosciutto!

You're not the first US resident to deplore this...
What happened to all those cheap transatlantic
flights ? Petrol prices are down...

I'm not so sure of that... The US finally have a
respectable president, we still have Berlusconi.
Italy is in crisis - and not only the economy.
Last weekend some kids (youngest was 17, and all
from 'respectable' families) set fire to a homeless
Indian sleeping outdours, just 'per divertirsi'...

Surely, Obama is the Redemptor Mundis, and in the USA everything is now
magically working right. Let's not talk about other countries.
Ciao.

I'm much happier these days with Obama and the Democrats, but it remains to be seen
whether the "change" will be sufficient to pull us out of the tailspin we're
in. I think it'll be rough going for quite a while.

Ugh, that sucks. I guess every country has its equivalent of "rednecks".
I also just remembered reports from a few years ago of crowds in Italy chanting
"Duce!"... not good. OK maybe I'll stay here then; at least I know what
I'm getting.
Have fun at the conference. I'd still love to go, if I had the money. As my
grandmother used to say, "Managiano i soldi, e quiri stampa oppure!"
