* Fon: Get cellphone numbers for better communication in town, maybe buy prepaid SIMs
The International Roguelike Development Conference IRDC 2008 was the first [[IRDC]].
* Goals: Define some goals. (Code, Docs, Fun, Learning.)
* Map: Get short URLs for location
* Map: Accomodation (where is everyone staying?)


== Food for Thought ==
Initially conceived as a [[rgrd]] meeting, the name IRDC was adopted at this conference.


http://xkcd.com/91/ :
Discussions during IRDC 2018 led to the creation of the [[Berlin Interpretation]]
Welcome to text-only Counterstrike.
You are in a dark, outdoor map.
> GO NORTH
You have been pwned by a grue.


Comment by the author of the cartoon:
I'm sure a discussion of the reason for the disappearance
of adventure games in favor of RPGs would be fascinating.
Discuss! ;-)
