What European locations are preferred from non Europeans ??
Any suggestions?

Germany/Munich/October ? > :slight_smile:

If Canadian Spring should be October, why not? > :wink:

Well, talking with people from Canada i’m ready to believe that it’s alike
Sibiria at least from georgaphical/weather point of view. Just located at
another side of the Earth. And if here Spring may start at Friday and Autumn
at Monday with a hot Summer @weekend… why not :wink:

ok, anyway i was told that fall == autumn != exactly spring so Oktoberfest
is still in the game. at least i hope so…

ps: West Siberia dosn’t belong to Europe so i may answer this question
:slight_smile:


hmm, are you talking from postal or geographical point of view ??
Yesterday I leaned that Sibiria “belongs” to Europe > :wink:

I had a package for Novosibirsk and wanted postage for “World” (we have
for small packages 3 standard fees: Germany, Europe and rest of the
world). The clerk looked to the package and told me that it’s Europe.
Hmm… I tried to make clear that Europe is Western of the Ural and not
Eastern… and he told me that it doesn’t matter, from postal point of
view Russia “is” Europe…

any comments ?

No problems ! As an example:

traceroute inn.qnx.com

…tells me that QSSL is located at the Moon rather than at the Earth at all
so clerk’s level of mistakes is more then suitable in comparison to the
world wide routing :slight_smile:

But if seriously i always thought that Siberia dosn’t belong to Europe so
guess he was right only from postal codes point of view.

Cheers,
Jutta

Canada is in sync with Europe when it comes to seasons.
October is in fall. In northern canada, one might argue
that October is in winter though. You have to go to southern hemisphere
to reverse season.

Hmm… when I remember the ‘late summer’ discussion for the RTP release
so I have in mind that at least QSSL has special definitions of
seasons :wink:

Frankly, there should be a European QNX and an American (San Fransisco, btw
:slight_smile: ) QNX conference. I know that I won’t be able to go to one in Europe
and I know there are many more in the US who wouldn’t be able to go
especially in these tighter financial times. I also would like to bring a
co-worker along but I know there won’t be room in my budget for 2 trips to
Europe, no matter how “inexpensive.”

Some fligth to European country cost less then some flights within US.
If the conference would be in Canada for example a 100$ a night
in a hotel would actually cost you ~60$ US… While a 100$ a night
hotel in the US would cost me ~155 CDN.

Of course if you can walk/cycle/row/swim/drive to the conference location
that’s a different story :wink:

Well my opinion still stands, there should be two conferences. BTW, I just
checked for a flight to Amsterdam or Munich (only checked these two
destinations) from Sacramento in September and both cost over $2600 US. I’m
sure you could find some cheaper, but nothing will be cheaper than staying
in my own continent. :slight_smile:

Anyway, this seems like a dead horse being flogged so I’ll end on this note:
QNX, please do one in North America somewhere.

Thanks,

Jim

I was just trying to be fair, people in Europe didn’t
get their share of conferences. I think there is a good
chunk of QNX customer overthere :wink:

That being said two conferences would be ideal.

That’s because there is only one airline in Canada; monopolies suck eh ?

As for European travel being cheaper than travel within the U.S.; I
don’t believe there is any airline travel anywhere in the world
(correction, I know there is no airline travel anywhere in the world)
that is cheaper than domestic U.S. travel at the moment. For example; I
can travel from Southern Cal. to the Bay area for $34.00 one way.

Competition rocks ! Monopolies suck, now if we could only do something
about Microsoft :wink:

I can fly to Paris with 2 night stop over in London (hotel included) right
now on British Airways cheaper than cheapest fare I could find to
California.

And I think Canada has Air Canada and Canadian Airlines or somesuch, at
least. Might be wrong :wink:

Are you suggesting there are other states besides California (he says
ducking :wink: ?

Seriously, the published airfares from major cities in other states, to
major cities in California will be aimed at business travel, while the
published fares from a major city in the U.S. to Paris, France, are most
likely aimed at personal travel. Try priceline.com, I am sure you’d
find a very reasonable fare from wherever you are, to the bay area (of
course, you actually have to put the money up for the ticket in order to
find out how cheap you can get it - and you have to be flexible -
