* '''Strasbourg''', France


=== DE - Berlin ===
Berlin could be a good and also cheap location for a meeting and has been requested in the past. Currently, there is no offer from someone in Berlin to host the meeting, but it should be possible to find somebody if this option is choosen by the majority.
=== DE - Lörrach ===
Manuel has organised the meetings in the past in Schopfheim, near Lörrach. His employer offered a meeting room and the equipment needed while a nice hotel was nearby. The place is easy to reach, 20 minutes by regional train from Basel which has three main stations of all bordering nations (swiss SBB, german DB and french SNCF) and an international airport (EAP/BSL/MLH). This time there is an alternative location named "G5" in Eimeldingen, two stops from Basel with the regional train towards Freiburg. G5 has a hotel, restaurant and meeting rooms. They also offer hosting of such meetings, including buffet, coffee and drinks. This would be more expensive than in the past, but offer some service.

=== FR - Val de Reuil ===
Linterweb - producer of Okawix - which is working on the openZIM team has offered to host the meeting in their office. We expect that the office already has everything we need and Pascal knows a good and cheap hotel nearby. The next aiport and major train station is Paris, but it takes about two hours to get from there to the location.

=== Propose a new location ===
If you know a good place which offers a meeting room with the typical equipment (internet access, projector, whiteboard or flipchart) and nearby hotels and public transport please contact [[User:Manuel Schneider|Manuel Schneider]]. We expect about 10 participants from Germany, Switzerland, France and a few from overseas (USA, Israel), so keep in mind that transportation to and from major train stations and airports has to be arranged. The total budget for the meeting is about 2.500 EUR, that's approximately 200 EUR per person plus rent of the meeting room and other general cost (such as snack buffet and drinks during the meeting or transportation costs). Bear in mind that travel costs exceed the openZIM budget so they are paid by the participants. Choose a place which is easy and cheap to reach.
