Linux Beer Hike 2013 in Castleton

Saturday 17th August until Sunday 25th August
http://lbw2013.norgie.net/

Hacking, learning, talking, walking and dining - The Linux Bier
Wanderung (Linux Beer Hike) is all this and much more.  Each summer
around 50 Linux enthusiasts meet up for a weeks holiday.  This year the
15th annual event takes the penguin-friends to England, specifically to
the picturesque village of Castleton in the Peak District...

... Over the next few weeks the organisers and participants will arrange
various hikes and excursions, and participants can also register for
workshops and talks.  Questions on anything to do with the LBW will be
happily answered by the Linux beer hikers on their mailing list or on
IRC (channel #lbw at irc.oftc.net).
