Aeromexico has flights that you can schedule to go directly 
to Havana. You just have to declare that you are travelling under
a general visa.

This conference is in Vedado. It's a really nice area of Havana. 

I have been to Cuba several times and I can tell you that free
software is widespead throughout Cuba.

"There are two ways of constructing a software design. One way is to
make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies. And the other
way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies."

Professor C. A. R. Hoare
The 1980 Turing award lecture
