I am coming for FOSDEM but the more interesting events for me are on Sunday (NoSQL room, Drupal room) and was wondering -- is there a Drupal friendly company that would host a few of us on Saturday for a code sprint :) ?

We'd be happy to accommodate a group of developers for a code sprint. The only issue is that we're not very near Brussels but there is a train station nearby. It's a train ride of about 10 minutes from Brussels. We can provide a shuttle service to the station. There's room for about 15 people.
Here's the (approximate) spot:

Airport pickup?
My plane from Budapest lands 09:10 at BRU. I looked at transport and ... it seems you are close to the airport somewhat? Maybe you could pick me up?
That is definitely a
That is definitely a possibility. It would be a lot easier for you than by train since you first would need to take the train to BXL and then back to Zaventem. Send me your flight number when you have it through my contact form.
Would you be willing to give a talk on Sunday? We have 8 45-50min slots.
Count me in too
2010-01-26: UPDATE: regrettably, I won't be able to attend, due to an upcoming site launch eating up all my time.
I'll be glad to take part too.Any suggestions for accomodation on sat/sun night welcome.And, chx, will you do a NoSQL talk in the Drupal room ? :-)

I'll make sure to post a contact number so that you can call someone to pick you up at the station.

Very kind offer
I will ask but don't worry too much: can you get orange juice not made from concentrate? I know it's widely available in the USA and Canada but I have no idea about Belgium. If not, once again, dont worry. I am fine with just water. If yes, then two litres would appreciated :)

I have to pick up chx at the airport so I won't be able to provide a shuttle service before 10am since my colleague won't have a car tomorrow.
Use this link for the correct route from the train station and the correct location of the office. A GPS will send you to the wrong spot.
Should you still get lost, we're located next to "The Fashion Outlet" which should be easier to find. If you find "The Fashion Outlet" you can ask for further directions there.
