I started a documentation repo for #FOSDEM advise - for new and old visitors, attendees and speakers. I figure we can crowdsource it so bring your pull-requests. I will greatly appreciate help.
If not, I will populate it myself slowly over time but it won't be as good.
@bagder You are free to reuse content of my "how to survive FOSDEM" post.
I have some other work to do this week so cannot contribute directly.
@bagder @hrw maintains a great "how to survive fosdem" page at https://marcin.juszkiewicz.com.pl/2019/10/15/how-to-survive-fosdem/, you might want to join efforts :)
@bagder ”live near where a bus starts the morning journey ” is my favorite tip. But if there’s going to be a strike then it changes.

As a #barefooter, I can mostly agree with this:
"Shoes
It's good to wear the shoes that work best for a lot of standing and walking and can handle rain and some puddles (depending on the weather). These might not be the best looking shoes you have (or they might be) it just needs to be something that once you put on you won't have to think about until you take them off, which will probably be hours and hours later."
Not sure about "might not be best looking" bit, but I guess that's in the eye of the beholder, and there's also "or they might be". I guess anyone can have a bad feet day once in a while. So, fair.

@janneke the shoe part so far mostly copied @chillicampari's comments from yesterday...
