For a lot of people, your writing seems out of context. The sponsorship brochure is linked in: http://debconf13.debconf.org/helpus.xhtml If other people find that it *had almost nothing to do* with DebConf, please tell us. BTW: someone noticed me that I did a single-list-reply on my answer to your previous mail. Here my reply: <http://lists.debconf.org/lurker/message/20121204.130912.539d5f32.en.html>. Personally I see many of your *attacks* are not founded. Possibly DebConf13 is not a DebConf for you (anyway we have a fantastic Video Team), but we need such kind of DebConf every few years, which fits better other DDs. It seems that you are entering in the Linus mode. If people doesn't like next DebConf, it suffices to tell the world that you don't like it (and the reasons), not to construct artificial critics. And at the end the DebConf is done by DDs, so generic critics to DebConf will cause less bids for next DebConfs so less choice. We win the bid for only *one vote* (IIRC) and a lot of discussion, again *only one* other candidate. I fear that the discussion of last days could force to give up teams for next DebConf (which is IMO again /classic/ DebConf). What was the last non-govern-sponsored DebConf without financial troubles? DC7? So people: don't make a difficult job impossible *Help us: sponsoring DebConf13 and biding for DebConf in 2014 and 2015* ciao cate PS: Josselin: at the beginning of the mail I referred to you, but then it was more generic. Don't take it too personal. _______________________________________________ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss
