Hi,
> How does that sound?
My fear is that most of the devs will flight back during the week-end
if  3) is not announced/organised.
We must propose something very clearly, not just say "stay as long as
you want".
That's also a must-have for ppl that have a boss and must argue that
they must stay for one more week. For example, I think Katrin will have
some difficulties to argue & convince her boss !
