Constant can certainly pre-guarantee the hotel. Euh... though we'd hope to avoid the defecit ;-) And yes, we are looking for a donated space. I propose to fix the dates anyway (I think it makes a better announcement, and also: wouldn't it be nice if this year LGM is the first event to be fixed in everyones agenda?). Unless anyone of you is already aware of a competing event? On our side, Brussels has enough hotels to buffer and the spaces we are looking at are not booked yet for May. I'm posting a draft anouncement on the wiki: http://create.freedesktop.org/wiki/Press_Release_1 While I figure out how to publish this on the LGM site (do you prefer to do this, a.l.e or better I do it myself?) please correct, add etc. I'd like to start spreading this as of tomorrow. We'll only be 2 days behind on schedule ;-)! Femke _______________________________________________ CREATE mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/create
