Ahoy!
I'm a friend of Marek Mamut err.. Mahut :) and I know some of you from this years CCC in Berlin. Marek told me that this would be the best way to contact you all.
Anyway, I'm from Skopje, Macedonia and I'm a member of the Skopje Hacklab called KIKA. We're organizing a regional hacker unconference called NSND (meaning Nothing Will Happen). Basically it's a hacker gathering where most of the people from the hacker communities of ex-Yugoslavija have been gathering for some years now and it usually happens few times a year in a different country every time. The event is more like an unconference rather than a conference, it's very relaxed, the point is to meet the people, have fun and exchange experience and knowledge along the way. We usually make an agenda when we get there and go with that after wards.
We already have people coming from Croatia, Serbia and Bulgaria so if anyone from your group is interested in coming I can provide you with more detailed information about how to get here, prices etc. There are airports in both Skopje (the capital) and Ohrid and transportation from Skopje to Ohrid is frequent and cheap.
We choose Ohrid as a location since it's one of the nicest places in the country and the date, the end of May since it's just before the tourist season starts.
Please let me know if you're interested in coming and how many days you are willing to stay so that I can make the necessary accommodation arrangements (the sooner the better). Feel free to ping me with any questions.
Cheers!

Hi Tomislav :)
Please can you provide some more informations about this session ? Date ?
28 - 29 of May - that's Saturday and Sunday, but would be good if you could get there on the 27 - Friday.
Place ( hotel / school / university /congress hall ) ? and agenda if is available ?
Based on the feedback we got from most of the people so far we decided to go with option number two for the accommodation. It's a villa, near the center of the city, it can take up to 30 - 40 people no problem and it also has a large conference room downstairs for 60+ people, we can use that for talks.
We're planning to set up one or two wimax antennas for the Internet there, we could probably get 10Mbps out of those - the good thing is that we can use them anywhere, even outside, as long as we can get an extension cord. :)
There is no ready agenda, the point of the event is to do the agenda the first day, people say their interests and then based on what most of the people want to hear we make an agenda and then go from there. For example if there are a lot of people working with python and there is also many interested people to hear a talk on something cool related to python then we put that on the agenda. From the experience so far, it takes about 30-40 minutes to do this and then we have an agenda for the rest of the event.
maybe if some web/wiki page is created > link it here ...
yup - http://wiki.spodeli.org/NSND/2011/%D0%9E%D1%85%D1%80%D0%B8%D0%B4 - there are some prices here on the accommodation, distances from surrounding countries etc. There are direct flights to Skopje (not sure about Ohrid but I can check) from Prague and Vienna and regular buses from Brno, Prague and Vienna to Skopje. If you get to Skopje on, lets say Thursday or Friday we can organize something and then take you to Ohrid by car or organized transportation (vans, buses, taxi etc).
Feel free to ping me anytime if you have any other questions, I'm also on #brmlab and I will try to get back to you asap. :)
