The hostel booking already happened so I've removed the hostel info from here. See DanielSilverstone's note below.

Space in the car for 3 people (so far) and small amounts of stuff too if people ask nicely... tbm is interested, so is wookey.

Atlas (http://www.atlas-hotel.be) is about 50GBP single, 58GBP double, 79GBP triple.

Booking for the hostel and provisional room allocation has been made. You can see it at FOSDEM2007RoomBookings. The booking is final, The room allocations are not. If you want to change your rooms around, just chat amongst yourselves and update the wiki. I will be handing a printoff of the page to the hostel when I arrive there on Friday afternoon, so ensure any changes are made before 06:00 UTC on the Friday. If you want to pull out, you need to find a replacement for yourself and get them to email me and agree to everything so that the page can be updated in that timeframe. Otherwise you will owe the amount due for your not turning up to DanielSilverstone.

If you're still looking for somewhere to stay - Citadines Sainte-Catherine currently (as of 2007-02-12) has twin rooms for 62EUR a night. I like them because you get a fridge and microwave -- WillHargrave

Beer

Friday evening: drinks on the top floor of the Le Roy d'Espagne on the Grand Place. Can't miss it; it's the one with the stuffed horse. Probably go for food before.

madduck: would be interested to meet folks before for some walking or whatever in the city. +41.76.4717846 for texts, or mail beforehand.

Pixie lands in Brussels at 09:40 (supposedly) and would like to do something in the city around before and after noon. +47 99512835 for anyone who would like to join up.
