  ====== X2Go: The Gathering 2020 - AKA V/RUS, the Virtual/Remote User Symposium ======
  
- **Status: Currently in early planning phase.**
+ **Status: Date and Location (save for some last-minute Covid-19 related changes) confirmed.**
  
- **Date: We've narrowed the possible event dates down to the following two weekends: 2020-09-18 to 2020-09-20, 2020-09-25 to 2020-09-27 **
+ **__Date__: 2020-09-18 to 2020-09-20**
  
- **Location: most likely a venue in southern Germany (Stuttgart,
Ulm, or Treuchtlingen), making [[http://www.linuxhotel.de|Linuxhotel, Villa Vogelsang, Antonienallee 1, Essen, Germany]] ([[https://goo.gl/maps/jEa519N4BVVSLvax8|Google Maps]]) unlikely for this year. Carpooling for several hours in times of Covid-19 is a bad idea, plus it doesn't really make sense to ferry the team from southern Germany to Essen and back, when all participants are native to southern Germany and/or Austria/Switzerland.**
+ **__Location__: [[https://shackspace.de/|shackspace]], Ulmer Straße 255, 70327 Stuttgart-Wangen, Germany [[https://goo.gl/maps/mxjVBL9dtaw|(view on Google Maps)]]**
  
- <note important>While X2Go: The Gathering is a pretty small event with usually no more than 15 participants, it has had international visitors in the past, which brings a risk of spreading Covid-19 further. As the Covid-19 pandemic will bug us until spring 2021 at the very least, we kindly ask our international participants to stay at home and join us virtually instead. If we do
meet in person at all (a decision has not been made yet), we will only allow registrations from Germany and possibly Austria/Switzerland, depending on whatever regulations may be in place by then.</note>
+ ** Why not [[http://www.linuxhotel.de|Linuxhotel]]: Due to Covid-19, we have limited the registration to participants from the DACH region. Carpooling for several hours in times of Covid-19 is a bad idea, plus it doesn't really make sense to ferry the team from southern Germany to Essen and back, when all participants are native to southern Germany and/or Austria/Switzerland.**

  Current plan is to have a hybrid event:
    * Presentations online on Friday evening
    * "Hackathon"-like in-person meeting on Saturday, continuing into Sunday morning (roughly 4 people), with a live stream
