I'll try to do it in the next days (maybe not before the first week of January)

No, it is not. It's a group of four houses for living and another
building with two big rooms for meetings, one of them with a fire
place. All resourses are available from Monday to Sunday.

Sant Bartomeu del Grau (SBG for short) has fewer than 1000 inhabitants
and guifi is wide spread all over that region. The idea is to ask the
neighbours to leave an electrical socket by their windows during that
week. We can also talk to the people of neighbouring villages to do
longer shots. All local authorities of that area support guifi so,
despite they are very short of money due to the recession, I pretty
sure that they will contribute with what they can. For instance, the
mayor of SBG has already offered the municipal multiuse building (were
SAX 2007 took place).

A guifi vulenteer has offered himself as a cook. He says he can take
care of all feeding logistics for about 5 or 6 € per meal per person.

Next step is to try to find some fundings. I haven't been lucky so far
in this field, and I don't expect to much from the local organizations
because nowadays everywhere everyone is short of money. Maybe you guys
could help on this issue, because, to be honest, I'm affraid it will
be the most difficult to do well for us (the guifi people).

Up to you. Of course, a car gives more "freedom" in the country side

I will work on that in the next days (maybe not before the first week
of January)

Maybe I'll need some help with the wiki, but I do not know it yet
since I haven't done anything

And, as I said before, with rising funds, but I know getting money is
always an issue.
