Mr Tim Ney,
I'm one of the organizers of aLANtejo 2005, a computer
science conference which is better described the the attachment - it's
the email I sent Gnome Marketing List to arrange a GNOME speaker for our
KDE vs GNOME debate
Now that we have a confirmed speaker - his information is in the end of
this email -, it would make perfect sense to have GNOME's presence in
our event.
Parallel to the congress, there will be a tent reserved for technologie
showings and sponcers, where we could have a GNOME stand. We could also
have GNOME banners and such things. Also, would it be possible to have
some suport on the travel expenses of the speaker.
Thank you for your time.
Best regards,
Bruno Teixeira
NEEI - aLANtejo 2005

It is inteded to be a nation wide event with audiences not only from the

presentations on Breakthrough Technologies and Grid Computing, and the last day
is entirely dedicated to Linux.
We would like to have a Round Table with Kde and Gnome representatives, to
