Maybe, we can - for the next time - try to coordinate the date with the
various international IT conferences which take place here, like
Linux-Tag in Berlin (just a few weeks apart), CEBIT in Hannover or the
smaller Chemnitzer Linux-Tage (or coordinate with events somewhere else
in Europe). That would give contributors not only more incentive to come
to the Git event, but also a better chance for successful negotiations
with their employers. Extending a business trip by a few days is a minor
issue, granting one in the first place not always.
