  2. Petri, I'm sad to see you officially retiring, you've been around since forever and i remenber that 10-12 years ago it was a complete different vibe and story. Meeting you on the few events and competitions (moa, cebit, computex etc) was great and i will always remenber some of the good time we all had at theses after-event parties.

    I wish you the best in life, success in your future project and maybe (hope ) will see you again in the future !

     

    Take care and.. Keep pushing it !

  3. More informations on how to get to Montreal / the event:

     

    Montreal is really accessible by Bus, train , plane or car.

     

    By Bus : There are 2 bus station (both downtown) Main bus station ( Berry UQAM ) and Gare Centrale ( Bonnaventure ), the event is located 1 block away from Bonnaventure, so i suggest that you take this one if you have the choice.

    Tickets and Info : busbud.com

     

    By Plane : YUL airport is the only one, the bus navette is pretty efficient, runn 24/7, cost 9$ and that give a day-journey on all buses / metro ). Taxi from airport is about 45$.

    Tickets and infos : hipmunk.com / google.com/flights

     

    By train : Usually a bit more exepensive than bus. The main Train station is : Gare Centrale (Bonnaventure) and is located 1 block away from the event.

    Tickets and infos : viarail.com

     

    By Car : 6H from New York or Toronto. Google maps is your friend. Parking info available on the ETS website (section Parking): http://en.etsmtl.ca/en/Overview/Contact-Us

  4. The issue is not the location of the finals but that Kingston Technology is a US company and because of that has to follow the US department of State policies.

     

    Indeed. that is actually a bit ore difficult, i was thinking in a way it wouldbe taiwanese company with 'branch office"...

     

    Anyway similar things happenned in the past at other competition with countries not able to display their flag because of this kind of political issues :(
