Status report

Accommodation

Like for the previous Sage-Combinat days of January 2009, I (Nicolas) have rented a 8-person house in Cernay-la-Ville (la tour). In case of overflow, we can setup tents in the adjacent garden. We will do the cooking ourselves (bring your favorite recipes and dishes!). Altogether this will make for a tight budget.
