Hi, A Debian Mini Conference is a gathering of debian folks in an area. We have been having debian meetups for a few years and this time we are planning conferences in 4 cities across India. More about it at
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianIndia/MiniDebConf2011 We are starting with Min DebConf Kerala in MES Kuttippuram. This year focus has been to get more people contributing in debian with a special focus on hands on training in creating and maintaining debian packages. We will start with introduction of debian - why it is unique, why debian etc and introduce various tools used in debian. We will have a gpg key signing party - a key component of trust in a distributed community like debian. Then move to packaging a sample application explaining various steps in detail - giving a chance to try it hands on while we explain it. Once packaging session is over, we encourage every one to take up one package and start working on it. We will have people who know packaging to provide help as required.
