It's a good idea, but rather difficult to implement. Our plans are to have local volunteers at the arrival hall during those period of times when most people are landing. By the attendees grouping up around the volunteers (who'll have some kind of signs) they can then spontaneously group together and board the shuttle taxis together. But it's difficult to coordinate it in advance any more than that.

This reminds me of something I wanted to ask - I see in the email that the organizers are recommending the shuttle-taxi thing for transit from the airport. Is there any effort being made to coordinate arriving Wikimanians, so that we can share a shuttle all going to the same place after we arrive at the airport, or is each of us pretty much on our own?

I'm also sorry to say that we had a stupid typo both in the Sender field and in the text itself with the OTRS address: it's supposed to read wikimania-registration@wikimedia.org. At least the embedded mailto: URL was fine! :)

Sorry about that (we're working like crazy here and these things happen :-)
