[ Please repost this mail on the dutch Debian mailing list, since I don't remember its address. Oh, and sorry for the large crosspost, I'd love to see Debian participate as well. ]
Moin! We have been invited to attend this year's Free and Open Source Developers Meeting (FOSDEM) taking place on February 16th and 17th in Bruxelles. There are a lot of seminar rooms which can be used by all participating projects and developers. If there are people from Debian who would like to give a talk or listen to Debian talks, these rooms can be used by us as well. The main goal of FOSDEM as I read it, is to provide a platform for developers of Free Software. The event will consist of talks from various projects. Some projects represented at FOSDEM are FSF, Gnome, Exim, KDE, SmoothWall. Debian could be among these... Our current status is 'not participating' because there are too few people from Debian attending FOSDEM. Currently my list of people contains six people affiliated with Debian going there. From these people, only Eric Van Buggenhaut offered to give a talk about Debian packaging. No decision has made, though, whether the talk will be held or not. People who are interested should drop a mail to debian-events-eu@lists.debian.org Koordination and Information: <http://www.fosdem.org/> List of Speakers: <http://www.fosdem.org/speakers/> Regards, Joey -- GNU does not eliminate all the world's problems, only some of them. -- The GNU Manifesto
