I don't mind Hamburg either, but I hope the dev-conference will take
place more than once, so if takes place in Hamburg in 2006 it could be 
here or wherever the next time. Or the other way around.
I can only offer it here, 'cause this is where I have access to the 
infrastructure. Also room pricing is low here and we could organize 
real inexpensive sleeping places in the gym (for students).

I know it. I organized and realized several events for the university 
press office and also other organisations. I'm quite confident that we 
would be able to realize a successful event.

As I said, I prefer Clausthal but I'd help anyhow if it takes place in 
Hamburg or anyplace else which isn't to far away.

As a proceeding I'd recommend discussing it in the tycon3 list for a few 
days to shape the idea. We could post an invitation to offer it in 
different places in the dev, english and german list now, though.

Then we run it over the dev-List for week or so to get input on the 
when, where, what questions, since the devs are the target group.

After that the TYPO3 officials might decide on the where and when.

After this we should ask Stucki for an extra list for organzing the 
developers conference.

Let's make it happen!
