Bandwidth
Yes, internet access will be provided. :) This section will be updated once we have the final bandwidth tests.

Hygiene
We have washrooms with communal showers, sinks and toilets. The facilities are separated for women and men. There's a large trough with cold water taps on the camp-site itself.

Food and Drink
There are 2 barbeque sites which you are free to use as long as you respect the fact that others might chip in on your coals. Feel free to approach people who've already started a fire to use some space on theirs too. Also, please clean up your ashes once they're cool. Barbeques or open fires in other locations are not permitted.

We will be selling drinks at good value prices, but you are obviously free to bring your own. Of course, we have Club-Mate.

We will cook a hot meal one some evenings, but most of the time you will have to rely on your own culinary skills or make use of the local catering businesses to feed yourself. There will also be lunch on one of the days for which you will have to register and pay on the day before. We will serve a balanced breakfast with hot coffee on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Fridges
There will be limited fridge-space available for visitors on a first-come first-serve basis (which we will try to make as fair as we can) but if you can bring a mini-fridge, please do so, if you can share it, even better!

Shopping
Dudelange has pretty much everything the common hacker requires in the vicinity. There is a supermarket in walking distance that is even open on Sunday morning. (directions on google maps)

The village itself has pharmacies, household utility stores and much more.

Transport
There is a train connection to Luxembourg City every half hour (hourly on weekends), right next to the supermarket. (Dudelange-Centre train station) Trains run from 5 in the morning 'til midnight. There also exist bus links to other destinations.

Tickets can be bought at the Dudelange-Ville train station or on the trains and buses. (note: not every train is staffed as it should and you may end up travelling illegally, better buy your tickets ahead of the time)

Tickets come in the form of a universal single use ticket which gives you two hours of travel on any national means of transport or daily/weekly tickets which provide the same. The ticket needs to be validated before travel at one of the orange validator machines.

There are also Oyster-card-like RFID cards available called e-go. They may serve as travel tickets...

For finding your route, go to mobiliteit.lu. ("de" means from and "A" means to)

Parking
There is a limited number of parking spaces which we will prioritise for people with camp-cars and small camper vans for obvious reasons. There is a free parking lot not far away to and from which we will provide an irregular shuttle service.

Stuff to bring
