Kosmos Summit 2020
- Location: Sambuca di Sicilia, Italy (HackerHouse/L6)
- Dates: October 2020
All core contributor hands on deck! After having drifted on the oceans for a while, with no port in sight, we need to decide on a good course and set the sails.
With all the basics for rapid feature development finally in place before this year's gathering, we'll be able to focus entirely on planning for, and hacking on, Kosmos Chat and Kosmos Services. And with our new initial budget, we can also start trialing our ideas for a sustainable, co-operative, open-source organization via Kosmos Kredits.

Dates
Everyone is invited in 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.
Preliminary dates for the Summit: October 9/10/11 (main day on Saturday).
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.
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.
COVID-19 notes
Sambuca hasn't recorded a single case to date, and there are currently no travel restrictions in Italy for EU residents. Everything is open for business, but mask usage is currently required for shared indoor spaces other than restaurants. These notes will be kept up to date until the summit.
Remote participation
Whoever cannot or does not want to participate in person, can also call in via audio/video chat for the focus sessions. However, no promises on connection quality, and obviously you're going to miss everything outside of the sessions.
