Interest in hosting Akademy 2018

[Stefan Derkits]

Yep ... intention of interest done.

Auch wenn recht wenig Feedback von euch allen kam, kam auch nicht
unbedingt etwas gegenteiliges. Und nachdem ich heute persönlich mit ein
paar Leuten der Fachschaft Informatik (wegen Location) und Lukas geredet
habe, habe ich beschlossen: Das Interesse ist natürlich da und wir
können das schaffen.

Auf zu arbeitsreichen Wochen um das Proposal zu füllen :)

lg,
Stefan
