Kosmos Summit 2021

• Location: Sambuca di Sicilia, Italy (HackerHouse/L6) + Remote (Zoom, or Jitsi Meet, or similar)
• Dates: September 25-26, 2021

All core contributor hands on deck!

Dates

Everyone is invited this September/October to visit Sicily and HackerHouse for a while and co-work from there (both on Kosmos and non-Kosmos stuff). In addition to the flexible long-form gathering, we will have two days or so of focused sessions, in which we will discuss and collaborate on the important topics.

Dates for the Summit: September 25/26.

Accommodations

There are some beds at the house itself, and also a variety of apartments in walking distance that we can use. For leisure time, there are both beaches and mountains, as well as old towns and ruins dating back to hundreds of years before the rise of Rome. Go explore!

Getting there

Airports PMO and TPS are both ~1:15 hrs drive to Sambuca. PMO serves the most destinations. Please coordinate with others for sharing rental cars and/or getting picked up from the airport. You can also take the bus (Autolinee Gallo) from Palermo central station to Sambuca.

COVID-19 notes

Most restrictions have been lifted. Masks required in public spaces indoors and at gatherings like e.g. markets outdoors. Travel is allowed for all purposes, and between regions. Ask in a chatroom if you need more info.

Remote participation

Whoever cannot participate in person, can also call in via audio/video chat for the focus sessions. We will organize everything needed for decent remote participation. So if you cannot or do not want to travel at the moment, it will not be necessary to do so. (Things will be organized last minute, as usual ;)).
