Indeed, I could probably handle the dailies, but the travel (+train) costs
are tricky, given my weak currency and turning freelancer not long ago..how
cheap/expensive is the region compared to Berlin?

I had assumed that , but then reading the call for participation it was
mentioned  newcomers with experience could be considered, so I decided to
reach out. I thought this was intentional as other open source groups do it
from time to time.

FWIW, i plan to fix the sprint location till wednesday. It's likely

I'll keep watching the list. Let me know if you accept my consideration,
and I shall add myself to the sprint list as per Florian's instruction
under 'unconfirmed' or some-such.

Thanks for you prompt reply,
