The FOSDEM devroom has always been organized like that, ie with me taking
care of the organization for GNOME, and doing it on GNOME mailing list.
Over the years we evolved from a GNOME-only devroom to a joint devroom with
KDE, to a devroom where we try to gather as many DEs as possible.
I'm not sure doing part of the devroom organization on a freedesktop
mailing list would help a lot as we need to make sure the call for talks
goes to the right communities rather than expecting people to watch
freedesktop mailing lists.
What kind of planning would you have expected to see on freedesktop MLs?
Would you have liked to be involved in the organization and feel you cannot
do it the way it has been done?

Christophe
